Continuing Education Programs

Paralegals play one of the most important roles in the legal industry. Though individual attorneys are ultimately responsible for the legal work they produce and the strategies they devise, many tasks – from legal research and writing, source citing, filing, and other – are delegated to paralegals. Working in a large firm or assisting just a handful of attorneys, Paralegals require a fundamental understanding of the substantive and procedural elements applicable to the specific areas of law where they’ll be working so that they can build on a solid foundation of knowledge starting from the first day. The Paralegal Professional Program is ideal for those students looking to start their career in this meaningful profession.
