    I am a US based paralegal with over 31 years experience. I joined Upwork around 2012. As I only work part-time, I am free to be quite choosey about clients (US attorneys ONLY). I tend to specialize in creating chronological summaries of medical records but I do other stuff as well, if needed. 100% of my clients are long-term. I don’t remember what else was asked but here I am anyway!

    I am well past retirement age so freelancing has helped to pay my bills and to keep my brain from rotting. I also help my widowed son raise his 10 year old daughter and help my other son who had a debilitating stroke 2 years ago, so freelancing gets me out of my problems for a period. (Of course, freelancing also creates a whole different set of problems.)

    I have been top-rated since it was invented, am currently TR+, never had a dispute, JSS at 100% except for a couple of weeks years ago. I am, of course, distressed about what’s been happening with UW and I truly pity anyway new with a legitimate concern/ question.
