Cost-effective smart litigators are now increasingly outsourcing "temporary" litigation projects to professional "freelance" litigation paralegals. The high-cost of hiring permanent litigation paralegals and/or use of expensive temporary agencies, can be clearly reduced by using professional freelancing. Retention of "freelance" professional litigation paralegals means savings of thousands of dollars, not only to your practice, but also to your clients!

I have worked as a bilingual, complex/general litigation paralegal for numerous law firms in the Miami-Lauderdale area. My extensive college education and my extensive litigation experience make me a strong competitive professional freelancer in the legal field (Resume).

I can also organize, review, update and provide case status reports periodically in all your cases! Specific Cost-Effective Benefits:

| I approach every litigation project systematically to make sure that you, as the lawyer in charge, "think through" all the important considerations arising from the litigation process, thus that you can take all the necessary steps to avoid "missing the boat." This is an extremely important proven approach to adequately prepare for settlement or trial. |
