Work experience

• Experience with e-discovery platforms (Relativity, Everlaw, or similar document review tools)
• Proficient with Bluebook cite-checking rules
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint)
• Highly organized with ability to independently manage multiple tasks and deadlines under pressure

Nice-to-have
