Summary

• Cite-checking: verifying that quoted text, dates, and page references in the drafts match the underlying source documents/exhibits exactly • Exhibit preparation: organizing, labeling, and formatting exhibits (screenshots, court filings, correspondence) to attach to the petitions • Formatting/proofreading: ensuring paragraph numbering, exhibit lettering, and citations are consistent throughout, and that the documents meet standard filing formatting requirements • General polish: catching any inconsistencies, typos, or formatting issues before these go to an attorney for final review and filing These are verified petitions (signed under penalty of perjury), so accuracy and attention to detail matter a lot here. I can share the current drafts and source materials once we connect. Ideally looking for someone with family law or civil litigation experience, familiarity with Illinois court filing conventions a plus.
