Guides for plaintiff firm staff
Working guides for paralegals, case managers and other staff at plaintiff law firms: which facts to collect, which rule a date comes from, and when to bring in the responsible attorney.
Each rule links to its primary source, and each guide shows the date its rules were last checked against those sources.
The guides are general information for law firm staff, not legal advice.
