Paralegal Careers
Paralegals work closely with attorneys in law firms, corporate law offices, government agencies and non-profit organizations. They play an integral role on the legal team, with hands-on responsibilities in the legal process. Challenging assignments often take them from the office to the courtroom, from the law library to the field. As a result they are highly respected and well-paid.
Paralegal employment is growing by leaps and bounds as law firms try to reduce costs by hiring paralegals to perform tasks formerly carried out by lawyers. You may specialize in a specific area such as:
- Litigation
- Real estate
- Tax law
- Corporate law
- Labor law
- Probate law
- Bankruptcy law
- Intellectual property law
- Family law
- Environmental law
- Immigration law
