Laurie Mapp’s Summary

I have worked for over 10 years as a legal assistant and paralegal in Alberta, Canada. I have worked for a sole practitioner, a mid-size lawfirm and the federal government and am familiar with several practice areas, including family law, tax law, civil litigation and personal injury law. I love working in the legal field and am excited to be pursuing my dream of self-employment as a freelance secretary.

Laurie Mapp’s Specialties:

Litigation based practices are my main area of expertise, and I enjoy working on challenging and difficult assignments!
