Research & Writing

        My task as a researcher is to assist you. I am not an attorney.  I cannot not replace you and would not try.  What I can and will do is diligently, meticulously research the statutes and case law and all resources to compile a comprehensive, get-to-the-point memorandum of substantive information. I will hand you a clear, concise, and verifiable research project that is a solid asset in support of your work product. I am trained and experienced with working the law data bases that are familiar to you, and I am a subscriber. Small firms and sole practitioners will especially appreciate the quality assistance and the very reasonable cost. 

Paralegal Services for Family Law Practitioners 

Paralegal Work in a Pro Bono Agency

​

        Family law issues require special sensitivity and patience.  A divorce, for example, or the issues surrounding the Colorado maxim "best interest of the child" require a good listener who understands the importance of separating the legal issues from the emotional ones. In my work as an intake officer for a western Colorado pro bono agency, I developed an attentive ear and the parallel skill of sorting the client's emotional needs and the attorney's strategic needs. 

 

     I am skilled at interviewing the client and identifying the client's issue, I prepare concise summaries of those interviews and submit them to you for your review.   

Paralegal Work in a  Private Firm 

 

        Family law issues are family law issues, whether the client is pro bono or for fee.  The balance of the client's emotional and legal needs is the same. I'm a great listener when the client wants or needs (or both) to "blow off steam."  I separate the proverbial wheat from the chaff, so your expectation for to-the-point, no time wasted information is never compromised .  

​

        I am practiced and skilled in the preparation of Colorado Judicial forms and in the preparation of packets for DOM, APR, and other frequent Family Law cases.
