I’m Sara, a bilingual lawyer, paralegal, and legal assistant based in Medellín, Colombia, with over five years of experience supporting U.S. law firms remotely in Florida, New York, Texas, and California. My experience spans Personal Injury, Bankruptcy (Chapter 7 & 13), Family Law, Criminal Defense, Immigration, and disability matters.
I have assisted attorneys with drafting legal documents and motions, preparing demand packages, managing case files using systems like Clio, conducting client intake, and organizing medical, financial, and legal records. I also support bankruptcy and immigration processes, including gathering documentation and helping clients navigate complex procedures such as U visas, VAWA, asylum, and disability claims. As a fully bilingual professional in English and Spanish, I regularly assist with legal translation and client communication.
My path has included drafting legal claims and advising on legal matters, as well as working closely with U.S. law firms on insurance and litigation-related cases. I am passionate about making complex legal processes clearer and less overwhelming for clients, especially in high-stakes situations involving injury, immigration, or family matters.
I am highly organized, detail-oriented, and proactive, with strong experience in remote legal workflows, document management, and cross-border collaboration. I am always interested in improving systems, simplifying processes, and contributing to legal teams that value efficiency, clarity, and excellent client service.More...
