Paula H.

I’m a litigation paralegal and executive support professional with more than 20 years of legal industry experience, including over a decade supporting both Plaintiff and Defendant-side litigation in state and federal courts. My background is rooted in employment law, personal injury, and complex civil litigation, with hands-on experience managing cases from intake through settlement and trial preparation. I have drafted pleadings, discovery, demand letters, EEOC complaints, legal memoranda, deposition summaries, and trial materials for attorneys handling high-volume caseloads. I understand the pace and pressure of litigation work, and I know how important it is to produce accurate, organized, and reliable work product under tight deadlines. Beyond traditional law firm environments, I have supported attorneys and firms remotely across multiple jurisdictions, managing litigation workflows independently while maintaining clear communication and confidentiality. I am highly familiar with the court procedures, e-filing systems, discovery deadlines, and case management processes of California, Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, Georgia, Indiana, Virginia, and Texas. My experience also includes legal research, executive-level support, contract matters, estate planning, and the use of modern legal technology platforms, including Clio, PACER, Westlaw, LexisNexis, CloudLex, and AI-assisted drafting tools such as Co-Pilot, Claude, and EVE. What I bring most is dependability. Attorneys need someone who can step in, stay organized, think critically, and keep cases moving forward without constant oversight. That is the standard I hold myself to in every matter I handle. *I can not provide legal advice. If you are seeking legal advice, please contact an attorney.
