• Legal research - Research across the firm’s practice areas: business law, real estate, corporate advisory, tax, and estate and trust matters.
• Document preparation - Draft, assemble, and proofread transactional and litigation documents: contracts, entity formation and governance materials, real estate closing documents, trust and estate instruments, tax-related filings, pleadings, and correspondence.
• Case management - Own active files end-to-end, keeping records complete, organized, and deadline-compliant.
• Litigation monitoring - Track court deadlines, filings, and procedural requirements across litigation matters.
• Client compliance - Ensure clients meet their document, disclosure, and procedural obligations on schedule.
