In addition to the
handling of a firm’s filings of court documents, MASTER
FILE clerks are also fully capable of any research that
may need to be performed at the various courts or
government offices. At a rate that is less than that of
a legal assistant, our search capabilities include but
are not limited to the following:
COPY RETRIEVAL
Obtaining copies, minutes, and other legal documents
from court files.
CASE FILE RESEARCH
Updating case status; obtaining, verifying judge’s
signatures, etc.
LITIGATION SEARCH
Court record search for past and present litigation
involvement.
DOCKET WORK
Signing up hearing dates; motion and trial docket
verification.
All MASTER FILE clerks are provided with petty cash
(around $30) to cover minor court costs, fronting fees,
etc. Large fees must be provided by the requestor or
full reimbursement on return is required.
