Default I was featured in Legal Assistant Today Magazine
I am very excited. A story about my virtual paralegal business has been featured in a well known legal assistant magazine for January and February. Please go here and scroll down to the article titled:

Virtual Paralegal Trend Grows
Practitioners cite flexibility, the economy as benefits.

By Tammy R. Pettinato


I am so excited!

I know, pretty exciting. Maybe some paralegals out there know attorneys who need our services. That is why I thought it so important to have a chance to get the word out on not only virtual paralegals, but virtual assistants who provide other support as well. I will keep you in mind for bankruptcy if an attorney comes along my way for that type of work. I don't know a darn thing about bankruptcy.

I'll do the same for you. I read in another thread that you were helping with an appeal. Now that is an area I know absolutely nothing about!

Yes, I actually put together the appellate brief with the attorney I do work with in IL. It was fascinating that I could help him put that together and research 250 miles away. I have appellate and supreme court research and writing experience.

Dawn,

I just read the article and I wanted to say Congratulations. While the law and learning about the law interests me greatly, I know next to nothing about virtual paralegal work. I hope (and imagine) this exposure will be great for you and your business (and other VLAs too). Nice job
