This review is from: The Accidental Secretary: a memoir (Paperback)

I am the writer of this memoir. Whenever I tell people that I work for attorneys, they become intrigued. Now with the media engaging in many TV shows and movies involving stories about attorneys (i.e., "Michael Clayton"), there is a lot of interest about what really goes on behind law offices. I decided to write my book to memoralize many of the office events in my life which I have experienced. I hope that you will buy my book; I do not think that you will be disappointed.
