    With over 20 years of experience as a private practice attorney, prosecutor, and district court judge, I have the proven ability to deliver your projects on deadline, within budget, and to your complete satisfaction. As a judge, I’ve acquired the experience with peripheral and related skills, including presentations, writing, and coaching, all of which will allow me to provide your project a fuller and more comprehensive result. These experiences have proven that I can complete your project on time and on budget. My many years in the demanding business of administering justice and formulating fair judgements, and my strict attention to detail enables me to guarantee you full satisfaction with the product that will be delivered. Your writing and editing projects will be simple and clear, the edits will make sense and be easy to understand, and the context and tone of your material will be maintained. The diversity and variety of the people and colleagues that I’ve worked with have prepared me to quickly grasp the essence of your specialty projects and bring a satisfying result to you, and value to your readers. ================== Proofreading & Editing ================== Your content will be diligently and efficiently proofread, including suggested changes highlighted using the Microsoft Word Change Tracking feature. If you prefer, other options are available. Your material will be proofread for spelling and grammatical errors and edited to make sure the context is exactly what is intended. A document written from the point of view of an authority can be quite embarrassing if the context is not true to the intent of the document. Your articles, reports, and documents will be proofread and edited to your specifications and within your timeline. Your materials will be scrutinized for spelling, grammatical errors, and oversights but also for structural improvements. Suggested changes will be delivered with the changes noted, allowing you the option of accepting or rejecting recommendations without affecting the document. You can count on me to apply my skills to your communications. My experience using Word means I will provide easily reviewable documents with changes you can accept or decline. This ensures that the final document is yours and is in your voice. Along with the attention to detail and basic proofreading, you’ll get suggestions on how to make your communication more interesting and compelling. ============= Content Writing ============= My past work in writing extensive reports and judgements, positions me as a valuable asset for your written content project. Legal blogs and web content must be easily understood, and require not only a strong grasp of the subject matter but also an in-depth understanding of the specific requirements, formats, and details that are included in the legal proceeding process. Expertise in this field will be a game-changer for your project if you’re seeking to create viewers through the written word and my ability will help bring those to your blog. My experience also equips me with the ability to tailor content to convey the information that you wish, to your customers, either online or in person. I know how to research and analyze the target customer preferences and what motivates them, enabling me to craft documents that resonate with your key customers and stand out among competitors. My track record of success makes me an invaluable partner in helping clients achieve their goals in the competitive world of online coaching. See my portfolio for some samples of my work!
