As my research begin to see the basic output that people go through when becoming a paralegal. So i will first take you through these steps and then show u "the life".
So to begin you may first want to ask your high school guidance counselor for recommendations of institutions offering paralegal certificates and degrees.Obtain the school catalogs and check whether the paralegal programs are approved by the American Bar Association or (ABA) some are not.
If most of the lawyers in your area prefer ABA-approved college programs, don't even consider other offerings.Decide whether to complete a paralegal certificate program for high school graduates, or a two-year or four-year college paralegal program. Be aware that many paralegals today are receiving at least a bachelor's degree, especially if they want to work for larger organizations.
Visit several schools you are considering. Be certain that they're known for being able to arrange a variety of internships for their students.Choose an area of legal specialty if you would like to work for a large law firm or the government. Possibilities include corporate law, criminal law, patent and copyright law, and real estate law.Plan to eventually become certified by the National Association of Legal Assistants (NALA) through a Certified Legal Assistant (CLA) designation. This will put you on a faster career track
