• Previously with Quill and Arrow as a Paralegal for 1.5 years - He resigned on July 10, 2025, mainly because he wanted career growth and better opportunities. He mentioned it was more of a contract role and that he was looking for “greener pastures.” Additional factors > he was juggling law school and work at the time, and later decided to pause law school to fully commit to work

His duties included drafting legal documents (demand letters, complaints, discovery docs, summons, civil cover sheets), reviewing and training newly hired paralegals, reviewing medical and police records for demand letters, filing documents, and handling outbound calls to clients and insurance companies.
