My Professional Experience
Family Law Paralegal | Lopez Law Office, P.C.
As a paralegal, I support attorneys by conducting legal research and factual investigation, drafting pleadings, motions, discovery requests, and correspondence, and preparing exhibits and trial binders. I manage case files and calendars, coordinate with clients, witnesses, and opposing counsel, handle e‑filings and document production, and maintain accurate billing and case management records. I ensure compliance with court rules and firm procedures, preserve client confidentiality, and assist with trial preparation and courtroom logistics to help attorneys deliver efficient, client‑focused legal services.
DEIA Initiative Team Captain | Lopez Law Office, P.C.
As DEIA Team Captain, I lead our firm’s efforts to recognize and honor cultural and heritage observances throughout the year. Each month I craft and send a concise, informative email that explains the significance of the month’s observance, provides historical context, and suggests ways colleagues can learn and engage. My communications keep the team informed, reflective, and connected to the communities we celebrate. I research and draft a monthly spotlight email that highlights the observance’s history, relevance, and recommended resources.
I plan and coordinate office events, speaker sessions, and volunteer opportunities tied to each month’s theme. I encourage firm‑wide participation, foster inclusive dialogue, and create opportunities for ongoing learning and allyship.
Summer Intern | Marion County Prosecutor's Office
As a Summer Intern at the Prosecutor’s Office, I assisted prosecutors by conducting legal research and summarizing case files, drafting memos and witness interview summaries, organizing discovery and exhibits, and preparing court documents and e‑filings. I observed court proceedings and client interviews, coordinated with law enforcement and victim‑witness advocates, maintained case management records, and supported trial preparation by assembling binders, timelines, and evidence packets. I followed office and court procedures, upheld strict confidentiality and ethical standards, and contributed to community outreach and victim services as assigned to gain practical experience in criminal prosecution.
