I help U.S.-based law firms, solo attorneys, and businesses with contract drafting and review, legal research, discovery support, litigation drafting, subpoenas and records requests, compliance documentation, and attorney-directed legal writing.
I am a UK Qualified Lawyer and U.S. Certified Paralegal with hands-on experience supporting personal injury, family law, civil litigation, employment and HR matters, healthcare and behavioral-health documentation, landlord-tenant matters, and Maryland-focused legal work. I do not simply summarize rules or revise wording. I review facts, identify legal and contractual risks, organize records, and prepare practical, attorney-directed, client-ready work product.
My contract work includes service agreements, independent contractor agreements, employment agreements, NDAs, confidentiality agreements, vendor agreements, provider agreements, consulting agreements, settlement terms, lease addenda, payment terms, and other business-facing agreements. I focus on enforceable structure, risk allocation, payment and termination language, scope clarity, dispute-resolution clauses, indemnity, confidentiality, and other provisions that create real business risk.
For litigation and discovery support, I assist with pleadings, motions, discovery requests and responses, interrogatories, requests for production, requests for admission, demand letters, deposition summaries, medical-record summaries, liability and damages narratives, chronologies, exhibit summaries, subpoenas, non-party records requests, affidavits, declarations, certificates of service, and filing-ready document sets.
For personal injury and family law matters, I help prepare demand packages, case timelines, client declarations, parenting-time and financial-background narratives, affidavit drafts, exhibit organization, discovery materials, and court-ready supporting documents. For landlord-tenant matters, I assist with notices, answers, motions, payment-plan proposals, hardship declarations, sheriff letters, and filing instructions across multiple U.S. jurisdictions.
I also support healthcare, behavioral-health, and business clients with HIPAA documentation, confidentiality and records-release workflows, CARF-aligned policies, employee handbooks, workplace policies, offer and termination letters, onboarding materials, consent language, intake forms, and risk-management documentation.
Tools & Systems: LexisNexis, Westlaw, PACER, Clio, Docketwise, Airtable, DocuSign, Adobe Acrobat, TherapyNotes, Accreditation Now, Microsoft Office, Google Workspace, and standard remote collaboration platforms.
Legal Research Tools: LexisNexis, Westlaw, and PACER for case-law research, statutes, regulations, federal docket review, pleadings, filings, and litigation research.
Law Firm & Case Management Tools: Clio, Docketwise, and Airtable for case tracking, client intake, task management, deadline monitoring, discovery organization, and legal workflow management.
Document & Contract Tools: DocuSign, Adobe Acrobat, Microsoft Word, and Google Docs for contract drafting, document review, PDF editing, e-signatures, redactions, formatting, and client-ready legal documents.
Compliance & Healthcare Tools: TherapyNotes and Accreditation Now for behavioral-health documentation, HIPAA-related workflows, CARF-aligned policy support, compliance tracking, and provider documentation.
Airtable & Workflow Support: I can help maintain case trackers, discovery logs, intake systems, contract review logs, compliance checklists, HR trackers, document-management workflows, and task-management systems using Airtable or similar platforms.
Remote Collaboration: Microsoft Office, Google Workspace, email, shared drives, video meetings, and standard remote collaboration platforms for smooth communication, file sharing, and project coordination.
Responsive within hours, available across U.S. time zones, and available for one-off projects, ongoing retainers, law-firm overflow support, contract work, compliance packages, and litigation support.
I do not present myself as a licensed U.S. attorney and do not provide attorney-only representation. My services are limited to legal research, drafting, document review, discovery support, HR documentation, compliance support, and attorney/client-directed legal assistance.
