I have been a Legal Secretary since 1977 and have worked in the personal injury realm since 1978. I have been the Office Manager and Head Legal Secretary at the Law offices of Christian J. Amendt for twenty-four years. I am bilingual, speaking both English and Spanish.

I assist Mr. Amendt with all aspects of a case and am present during most meetings with Spanish speaking clients. I pride myself in providing our clients with the best experience possible and look forward to helping you along your legal journey.

I have worked in the legal community for two years. My most recent year has been spent working as a File Clerk for the Law Offices of Christian J. Amendt. I am bilingual, speaking both English and Spanish. I am currently in my second year of college at California State University, Fullerton. I am majoring in Criminal Justice and I plan on having a career in that field once I obtain my Bachelor's Degree.

My responsiblities in the office consist of filing paperwork, copying files, managing the closed files, and basically lending a hand whenever I am needed. I have found that woking for Mr. Amendt has not only challenged me to think on new levels, but also to continue pursuing my college degree.

I also handle our client's property damage and deal directly with the insurance company to ensure everything is dealt with quickly and efficently.

I have worked in the legal field for twenty years. I have been a Legal Assistant for the Law Offices of Christian J. Amendt for eleven years. My duties at the firm include screening possible new cases over the phone, following up with clients regarding medical treatment and assisting in finding doctors for treatment if necessary.
