What kind of copy and paste issues? This should be something that you should be able to do with JAWS and I presume other screen readers as well. Readers are more vital for handwritten materials, pictures/images, certain tabular content, and documents that refuse to OCR well.

On demonstrating independence, you can take some assistance. A legal secretary or paralegal can proofread and look over formatting as a final double check once you have spent time on drafting a document. This is not unusual, and many associates at my firm do this.

Hey guys, I am currently interning at a criminal defense and personal injury firm. The firm is teaching me how to write demand letters. I recently just wrote my first demand letter. The process of writing the demand letter was not bad, but I did find that I needed someone to revise and fixed my copy and pace issues. I would like to be independent to prove that I can do the work without help. However, I am blind and cannot see all my mistakes in the the document. I thought about hiring a reader, but I do not know how much to charge. Does anyone have any ideas of how much I should pay? I do not want to use friends or family because I do not wish to mix the two.


Sincerely,


Roderick
