With nearly 15 years of litigation experience, I provide paralegal support in complex litigation, multidistrict litigation (MDLs), and class actions. I can step into a case at any stage—from discovery and motion practice to trial preparation and settlement support. My experience includes managing complex federal dockets, drafting and filing legal documents, coordinating large-scale discovery, reviewing document productions, preparing trial materials, and handling state and federal e-filing. I am detail-oriented, deadline-driven, and quick to adapt to new teams and workflows. Please note: I am not an attorney and do not provide legal advice.
