Summary and Background

She has 8 years of experience with Australian law firms, specializing in estate planning, probate, and conveyancing across NSW, QLD, and VIC.
She's handled will drafting, litigation support, and court submissions, and is seeking a full-time remote role (open to US hours) at $1,900–$2,000/month (currently at $1,720).

“I manage estate planning and probate matters end-to-end from client intake, capacity assessment, and will drafting to document execution and court filings. In one litigation case, I prepared the statement of claim, affidavits, and exhibits and coordinated directly with counsel for court submission. I also led the shift from paper-based probate workflows to a fully digital process, training senior lawyers and ensuring compliance with legal mandates. Even with minimal instruction, I draft legally sound documents like adding fallback clauses to wills to meet both client intent and statutory requirements.”
