Throughout my career, I have gained extensive experience in legal preparation and research, and I am always seeking new ways to improve my skills. I take pride in my ability to assist clients throughout every stage of the legal process, from the initial intake to managing cases, collecting evidence, and keeping them informed. When I moved to the United States, I was given the opportunity to work as a paralegal in the American legal system. This allowed me to utilize the knowledge and skills I had acquired as a legal assistant and attorney in Turkey. I embraced new challenges, such as case management, evidence preparation, presentation, and court proceedings, and I worked tirelessly to strengthen my abilities as a paralegal. I make it a priority to stay up-to-date with the latest legal practices by attending evening classes and legal seminars. My long-term goal is to obtain my attorney's license within the next 2-3 years and complete my NJ and NY bar admissions, so that I can continue to grow as a legal professional. I am confident in my abilities and excited for what the future holds.
