• Managing complex cases and multi district litigation is part of the deal.
• You’ll assist with deposition prep and pre trial investigations.
• Preparing other legal documents like contracts, agreements, and legal arguments for attorney use.
• Assisting with drafting briefs and statements that become part of our case presentation.
