  • Review and summarize medical records, case files, and other important evidence.
  • Assist with cases involving personal injury, premises liability, trucking and transportation, habitability, and other liability matters.
  • Coordinate deadlines, maintain case files, and help keep litigation moving efficiently.
  • Prepare legal documents, correspondence, exhibits, and trial materials.
  • Collaborate with attorneys and colleagues to develop effective case strategies.
  • Take ownership of assignments while contributing to a responsive, team-oriented practice.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
