Paralegal Studies
Offcanvas
Fans of legal dramas could be forgiven for assuming lawyers do all the work, but in the real world, paralegals offer invaluable assistance to lawyers at every step in a case. While paralegals don’t provide legal advice or represent clients in court, they still play a significant role during proceedings, such as interviewing clients and witnesses, conducting important research, and preparing legal documents. If you’re highly organized, excellent at prioritizing, like to conduct research, and can communicate well verbally and in writing, a career in law could be your calling.
The Paralegal Studies program offers several paths and can prepare you for entry-level employment in law offices or legal divisions of government agencies.
Make it happen and start your path toward a career as a paralegal.
