Experience

• University of Detroit Mercy School of Law

  Assistant Professor

  I taught a two-semester legal research and writing course to first-year law students. I also designed and taught a variety of health law courses, including survey, advanced topics, and practice simulation courses. During my academic career, I edited and provided written feedback on hundreds of student papers and edited course handouts for colleagues. I also served as editor of UDM's American Bar Association reaccreditation self-study, a several-hundred page document assessing all aspects of the school’s operations.

• University of Detroit Mercy School of Law

  Director of Law Firm Program

  I served as the first director of the school’s Law Firm Program. In this role, I worked with other full-time faculty members to design the curriculum for the innovative program in which third-year law students engaged in the simulated practice of law. I recruited and trained adjunct faculty to teach in the program, co-created and co-taught the program’s pilot course, and created and taught the program’s transactional health law simulation course.

• Weissman Legal Editing, LLC

  Founder and Editor

  I work with law firms of all sizes editing website content, newsletters, articles, blogs, e-blasts, and other marketing materials. As a lawyer who has practiced in both large and small firms, I fully understand the pressures of billable hours. I likewise know that billable hours will not come your way unless you spend considerable non-billable time marketing your services. Let me take some of the non-billable stress off of you so you can get back to what you are paid to do. While you service your clients, I will put my 25 years of editing and proofreading experience to work, making your website content and marketing materials stand out from the competition.
  
  I also provide proofreading services for legal documents. Let me catch writing errors before a judge or client does.
