    I provide editing services from proofreading, copy editing, and line editing to developmental editing and indexing of academic, nonfiction, financial, tax, and legal projects. I also record for Radio Talking Books and record audiobooks for Audible and Librivox. Since 2020 I have edited more than a dozen nonfiction books, three book-length dissertations, more than 50 academic journal articles, numerous master’s theses and other shorter works, and several white papers. As a retired attorney, judge, and business school professor, I've applied my expertise to subjects ranging from an analysis of the UK's system of dual-class shares, to whether the legal definition of genocide should encompass political grounds, to the environmental aspects of fast fashion, and everything in between. I recently edited and indexed a book on the unique problems of employing those with criminal histories, which was published in 2024 by Springer Nature. I have also edited nearly a dozen travel and how-to books for CZYK Publishing, an independent publisher in the United States. I have extensive experience, and particular expertise, in working with clients for whom English is a second (or third) language. I edit in MS Word and return for each project a redline with my suggested edits and explanatory comments and, when appropriate, a clean copy ready for use. I have also edited in Google Docs and in Adobe. I have certificates in editing from the University of Washington and from the University of Chicago, a doctorate in accounting/business/economics from the University of Minnesota, and a law degree from the University of Michigan. I would love to speak with you about how I can help you make your writing clear, concise, and compelling. As a first step, let's schedule an interview to discuss your project!

    Retired attorney with 30 years general litigation experience. Was licensed in Louisiana and Minnesota, but no longer a member of the bar in any jurisdiction. I will not be forming an attorney-client relationship with anyone. My services are confidential and performed to my fullest ability as an expert in legal matters. Consultations about litigation. Ghostwriting for attorneys. Will help draft pro se pleadings. Pro se clients are challenging to work with. They litigate without counsel. This is a tough choice because in litigation someone must lose, and the odds are stacked against non-lawyers. Pro se clients usually come to Upwork after they have steered their cases into a corner. They usually have strong opinions - often ill-informed - on what should be done. I offer each the fullest benefit of my experience and labor. Some who win do not credit me for magically saving their cases. Some who lose lash out with unfair ratings and comments.

    I am a former practicing attorney, previously actively licensed in Oregon and Montana. Now on inactive status, I have extensive legal research and writing experience. Throughout my time as a practicing attorney, I have drafted multiple contracts, formed numerous business entities, created agreements for multiple business transactions, written and edited estate planning documents, and researched and assisted in composing real estate transactions. During my time in litigation I performed in the function of a Deputy City Attorney and led the prosecution of hundreds of misdemeanor crimes. Additionally, I practiced in the area of family law in adoption cases, grandparent right cases, complicated divorce cases as well as assisting in providing domestic violence victim assistance through restraining orders and other motions. Early in my career I also drafted many motions in the area of insurance defense law. I also gained experience in many areas of law through the ownership of my own general law practice in a small Montana town. I enjoy research, editing, and writing of any kind. I have an eye for detail, and am very thorough with a strong work ethic. I can provide writing samples, editing samples, and references upon request. I am currently looking to work from home to keep my skills sharp, and to have an outlet for my passion in the legal field, and other studious endeavors. I am hoping for work that is mainly in the capacity of a paralegal or legal assistant, but can provide the added benefit that only a practicing attorney can provide.
