Week 3

I got a lot of independent time this week which was a nice shift. I was able to get a lot accomplished because for the next couple of Fridays William has to do some outside work. I made phone calls to each of the clients I have been assigned. At first I thought calling people would be boring (probably because I worked in a call center for a year and that was boring), but it has been one of the more rewarding things I do in the office. One client I've been calling on a weekly basis, let me know how much it means to her because she didn't feel like her attorney cared very much about her. She thought this because she is a new client to William and her previous attorney did things differently.

Having these few Fridays to myself has been nice because it gives me an opportunity to work with different lawyers. As stated last week William has taught me the basics to almost everything, including filing. I have really enjoyed filing most my life, but especially for DAC. I like to read the different cases for each client because they are all truly unique. But, when I organize each of their files, I lay it out in a way that everything reads out as a story. In some cases it is good or bad to see the change in each client. The case I read showed a person who was doing all the necessary changes and now the case has gone into neutral and this lawyer can't figure out why. I am excited to call this client to find out why. Really productive week.
