PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE OF AGLAIA DAVIS

Since 2001, Aglaia Davis has been specializing in litigation-based, in-depth research and writing. Admitted in New York and New Jersey, she has over 18 years of experience drafting and opposing motions, post-trial briefs, and appeals. Along with this, she has become a sharp and skilled litigator, well versed in federal and state procedural and substantive rules.

 

Aglaia’s areas of expertise span almost all areas, including civil and criminal litigation, matrimonial, personal injury, contracts, entertainment, Section 1983 actions, employment disputes, and maritime. She can learn a new area of law within minutes or hours through her legal research skills, and becomes versed not just in the document she is drafting but in the posture and substance of the case as well.

 

While she can serve as a “mere” ghostwriter and draft pleadings, motions, briefings, and appeals as instructed, Aglaia is more than a brief-writer. She is a litigator who has perfected the art of written submissions, which allows her to apply her years of expertise in both areas in your favor.

The Importance of Using an Experienced
Legal Research Professional

Having an experienced professional handle the legal research for a case is crucial for success. Thorough legal research provides the support behind any legal decision by exploring specific facts and establishing legal precedent. The right facts and knowledge can help prove or disprove a client’s position on any particular issue.


The proper legal research process follows three steps:


● Collect Primary Sources: A primary source is a document that directly establishes the law on a particular issue - it can be a case, statute, or regulation that pertains to your topic.

● Consult Precedents: Using reputable legal citation tools to validate the legal points you’re making in your argument. The more legal precedent you are able to cite that supports your legal strategy, the stronger your argument will be.

● Find Secondary Sources: A secondary source can include legal treatises, law review articles, and other scholarly legal writings that can be used to help persuade a court to reach a particular decision.


An experienced legal researcher knows what sources to consult to build a strong case. The right sources can make or break a legal argument, so working with an experienced professional is imperative to success.
