We train students to work as paralegals (legal
assistants) under the supervision of attorneys. Paralegals who attempt to practice
law without a license risk violating Unauthorized Practice of Law statutes,
which every state has enacted.
Paralegal
courses also teach students skills that are valuable in a wide variety of jobs
in business and give prospective law students more confidence and job skills to
work as paralegals while they are enrolled in law school.
