Aretha Gaskin is a virtual legal assistant with a history of administrative expertise and owner of the three year old firm, The Virtual Legal Assistant Inc. Gaskin also keeps a very well-written blog at her company site, providing a wealth of advice in such areas as marketing, social media and information management. Though the number of virtual legal assistants who blog is growing in number, this reviewer found very little mention of Gaskin's blog on any of the other more well-known legal bloggers' sites. As a virtual assistant, Gaskin claims to bring several years of experience working with corporate law firms, though no mention could be found of which firms she has worked for. It does seem that within the past couple of years she has started working with bankruptcy lawyers, offering her skills in the considerable amount of form-processing that occurs in that branch of law. Gaskin does seem extremely familiar with methods of online promotion and immersion in social media networks, as evidenced by her plethora of accounts and the professional structure of her company's website and marketing presence. Aretha Gaskin's blog is a worthy read for any professional who is looking to increase their productivity, even if they aren't specifically looking for an assistant, and she certainly seems to have some valuable content and advice to offer.
