What is a Paralegal

 

 

Paralegals provide professional services in a variety of legal business settings, corporate and usually but not exclusively under the supervision of a lawyer. These services can include: interviewing, investigation, legal research, preparation of legal documents, review of transcripts, and participation in adversary and regulatory proceedings. One of the fastest growing professions nationally, Paralegals are employed by individual attorneys, law firms, courts and government legal offices.

Paralegals are also in growing demand by corporations, government agencies, financial institutions, insurance companies and real estate firms. Program graduates are advised not to confine their search for employment to the Erie market. Employment should be sought throughout the Western New York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio area, and beyond.
