To Whom It May Concern:
I have had the pleasure of working with Christine Saraceno in Toxic Torts/Asbestos during my time as Counsel at Offit Kurman. She has supported me on a daily basis in all Paralegal functions. In a very short amount of time, I quickly saw how invaluable she is to the office and in supporting my role. She is not only incredibly personable, but also very intelligent, responsive, and organized. She has a high capacity and has been very successful in handling a large workload spanning numerous jurisdictions. She is able to get along with different office personalities and can largely adapt to any environment. She can work independently and with limited supervision and instruction. She is an incredible asset to this office. I cannot recommend her enough for any Paralegal / Legal Assistant position. If you have any additional questions, I would be happy to discuss her candidacy further. Please do not hesitate to contact me.
