Need a paralegal who actually knows what they're doing - across courts, jurisdictions, and time zones? You just found him. 👋 I'm Ranz, a paralegal with 3+ years of hands-on litigation experience supporting attorneys, pro se clients, and businesses through StellarStart Global Limited, a London-based company. I manage 40+ active matters simultaneously across US federal and state courts, UK employment law, and Indian courts -- and I deliver work that holds up under scrutiny, every time. How I can help: 1. Litigation Support & Court Filings - Complaints, TRO applications, motions for default judgment, motions to file under seal, verified answers with affirmative defenses and counterclaims, oppositions to motions to dismiss, discovery requests and responses, substitutions of counsel -- across N.D. Cal., C.D. Cal., New York Supreme Court, Arizona Superior Court, Kansas District Courts, and Florida Circuit Courts. Daily CM/ECF e-filing and PACER research. I work with Clio for matter management and deadline tracking. 2. Attorney Support - I support attorneys in California and Florida across 30+ active matters. Research, motion drafting, discovery management, docket tracking, court-ready filings. I understand what attorneys need without being told twice. 3. Pro Se Support - Full support for self-represented litigants from complaint to resolution -- drafting, motion practice, discovery, procedural guidance, exhibit organization, and deadline management. As one client put it: "Your knowledge vs. budget needs are very high value, which is a mercy for me now." 4. Family Law - Dissolution of marriage, contested custody and parenting time, child support, financial disclosures, meet and confer documentation, RMC preparation, and co-parenting agreement review. Currently managing an active contested dissolution in Maricopa County Superior Court end-to-end. 5. Legal Research - Primary source research across US federal, state, UK, EU, and Indian law. Structured memos with full citations, live URLs, and change flags. No secondary summaries -- only statutes, regulations, agency guidance, and case law. 6. Immigration Documentation - Complete, attorney-ready USCIS and EOIR filing packages: I-130, I-485, I-765, I-131, I-864, N-400, I-589, I-918, EOIR forms, FOIA requests, and more. Forms, cover letters, exhibit indexes, checklists, and QC -- ready for attorney sign-off. 7. In-House Legal Operations - Contract lifecycle management, compliance research, employment law advisory, IP documentation, GDPR/CCPA compliance, HR policy drafting, and corporate governance support -- in-house counsel quality without the overhead. 8. Contract Drafting & Review - NDAs, MSAs, employment agreements, shareholder agreements, LLC operating agreements, IP assignments, licensing agreements, stock option grants, T&Cs, privacy policies, EULA, GDPR/CCPA documentation, smart contracts, and NFT licensing agreements. Every review includes statutory cross-referencing -- not just surface reading. I'm not an attorney - but I bring the research depth, drafting precision, and procedural knowledge that makes a real difference in live cases and real transactions. From overworked attorneys to first-time pro se litigants and business owners figuring out contracts on their own -- I'm here to make your legal work faster, cleaner, and stress-free. Let's simplify your legal processes together.
