This video really helped. I originally wanted to get a degree for Nursing and realized it wasn’t for me. Since I’ve been exposed to law and the court system it’s always been in the back of mind to try and push for a degree in law but not to be a lawyer. When I looked into it I read about being a Paralegal. From life experience and dramas it’s pushed me further.
My reason for becoming a paralegal is because as a child of abuse and neglect who fell through the school and law cracks and never got help. I want to be able to help children and people who need help getting out of those situations. If I don’t enter that area I would like to go into real estate.
Thank you for sharing your story. A lot of fantastic paralegals started their career with stories similar to yours. It is part of what drives our passion. Hold on to that passion and pull from that strength when you need it most. Good luck to you! Thanks for watching and commenting. I appreciate you!
I’m currently in school for a certificate in law enforcement but I’m going to go back to school after to get my AS in Paralegal Studies. I found a great school that will allow me to get my graduate as a certified paralegal! I’m so excited. What lit my fire was actually an attorney in a murder trial of a 3 month old baby and she just went off on the parents who were being tried and that really made me want to help people for the greater good. Criminal law is my ultimate goal
Hello! I applied for an AAS in Paralegal Studies at my local community college last week, hoping to hop on in time for the fall semester. So excited about learning this skill and developing as a person. I will definitely need to work on my typing, thats a huge weakness at the moment. 😂 My strengths are communication, gaining rapport, and empathizing with people.
@@MissTopDJ007 yes, the program is built around understanding the legal system, conducting legal research and drafting briefs, memorandums and litigation documents. English and communication courses are also required. The cirriculum I am attending is approved by the ABA, and that's the primary reason I decided to go to this school. A certificate program isn't really helpful unless you're already employed in the field, which I am not.
Great advice! We definitely need more qualified Paralegals, and also Paralegals who join our industry for the right reasons. For any Paralegals reading this, THANK YOU! If you haven't been thanked by your attorney today, just know that there are plenty of attorneys out there that truly appreciate you.
Hi! I’m super interested in becoming a paralegal and I just finished my certificate! Do you have any advice on what makes a candidate with limited experience stand out? I’m currently in Southern California 😊
1. i like standing up for ppl who can't defend themself. 2. law is interesting 3. i like working remote from home - what concerns me is that- some cases "I don't like'. a- death penalty cases b. defending a tough client -i.e p-diddy - - i will be 3 years in march - so i'll have more ex = but i like the job i have so unless a job that is "remote opens up and i can work from WV"- or just something that sounds interesting opens up Like if Ben Chew is opening up a law firm in WV or working with a lawyer in WV
Hmm I’ve browsed several videos and majority have described being a paralegal as great, enjoyable and nice pay. But this video is sending me a different vibe lol. I am a single mom. Which means I don’t want a job that is going to stress me out all day and me come home bringing that stress. Although a lot of jobs are stressful. How ever I want to find a paralegal who is a single parent. Someone who can elaborate on a work schedule and how maintaining this job and being a parent works. Very informative video thanks!
Thank you for this video. I'm a teacher by training but extremely burned out. It sounds like some of them challenges in doing this. Tons of thankless worked, being micromanaged for little money. Thought about education law since I have background in that and things in that field really need to change.
you all prolly dont give a damn but does someone know of a trick to get back into an instagram account? I was dumb forgot the password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me!
I think the career you are describing is more of a legal assistant or admin. When you say the salary is low, I’m interested in what you think paralegals in major markets make today. I make well over 100k and myself and most of my colleagues have Masters Degrees as well as Paralegal Certificates. We work mostly on big trials, we draft extensively and manage a large staff of legal assistants and Jr. paralegals. What you are describing might be suitable for those who have less education and technical skills. The industry is changing rapidly and the Paralegals who are making top salaries are treated with a lot of respect as legal professionals. There will always be jobs in small firms or Personal injury etc. However, to work as a real paralegal in big law, is an exciting career. One that I have enjoyed for 15 years now. Great video.
Hey! I’ve seen you comment on a few videos I’ve watched. I’m interested in your insight. I have a BA in English looking to transition into the legal field. However I want to first obtain my paralegal certificate prior to going to law school. I’m 32 and a single mom of 2, so I’m really trying to make the best decisions on my next journey in school. What advice do you have? I’m particularly interested in corporate law and potentially becoming a sports lawyer.
This video is really good and good content, she does point out that this career isn't for those who aren't people oriented or dealing with the public. Also don't go for it for the money, that was one of the reason why that I was attracted to it.
Why I'm perusing? Well, I had a case against my old boss where I pretty much did all the work ahead of time before getting an attorney. I had all the evidence needed in the beginning and now I've found 10 businesses owned plus 2 co owned, a business a family member owns that did work on their home, current job the old boss has as well as his wifes multiple jobs, recent properties sold, properties he owns, real-estate agent plus loan agent. There's more I found but not relevant. Attorney said I would make a great paralegal. So I started school this year. For school I am getting a Paralegal certificate, as well as a cert in Cloud Computing, then maybe complete the general education to get an AA in Paralegal Studies. Once school is completed I will be a Paralegal with a background knowledge in Cloud Blockchain (smart contracts/cloud computing/AI), including being a Notary Public along side being a Legal Document Assistant (LDA) on the side, until California approves Licensed Legal Paraprofessional (LLP), then eventually work under an attorney for the Law Office Study Program (LOSP) or Law School. After completion of the paralegal program there will be plenty of certifications to come a few that I will attain during the next few years are Blockchain/Smart Contract Certification. Advanced Certified Paralegal (ACP), Paralegal Certification Through NFPA, Project Management Professional (PMP), Legal Project Practitioner (LPP), also Scrum Master Certification.
I’m thinking about a career change and paralegal caught my eye. Still trying to do the research into what kind of paralegal I’d be interested in because you’re absolutely right- money is nice, but if you don’t have a cause, then you’ll burn out quickly. I’m hoping to talk to a friend of mine who is over the Paralegal Associates program at my local community college to see if she has any advice. Also, do you recommend an Associates or going ahead and getting a second Bachelors since I already have a B.S. in Communications?
You should go for a paralegal certificate instead of an associates/second bachelors. There’s ABA approved certificate programs for people who already have their bachelors. I’m starting my program in January and it’ll only take a year!
I am really interested in being a paralegal but one of my weaknesses is mathematical skills and I am trying to figure out if paralegals deal with math or if it’s just writing/typing and documentation. I’m more interested in criminal law as well so I’m wondering if that would have lots of math involved.
Same question I have! I also struggle when it comes to math, yet excel in my writing courses and communications. I'm also wanting to know how much math I'll have to deal with.
Well I'm going for my associates degree in the subject and I asked if I would need to take any math classes. Apparently you only need a high school math level
@@cherryj1425 @Cherry J Can you please help I have not done any math in my high school (11,12 grade) but I want to enroll in this course. So are there any changes of my admission in this course. Please reply.
I would say, I'm interested in research and learning admissible evidence. I am frustrated with my typing speed! Type of law...I'd say maybe Native American Tribal or immigration. Maybe anything to do with mining. Thank you for your video. I worked as a temporary file clerk at an insurance defense law firm for about a year. I closed out old cases and created skeleton files. I had hundreds of boxes of old case files to " Skeletonize".
Can I be an independent Paralegal? I’m doing this to learn about Family law and I keep getting drawn back and back to this industry. I want to know how to draft documents and help others as well. It’s very important for me in family law.
so I want to become a states attorney paralegal. I am in school right now trying to get my general education out of the way but I have the option of choosing a bridge program… would a degree in IT be beneficial? I figured with all the discovery paperwork, and what not that that would be the most beneficial program.
Hi there! I’m a recent college graduate who wants to get into the paralegal field after deciding that I don’t want to go to law school right away. The one thing that worries me is that I’m physically disabled and my typing is a bit slow. Is that a deal breaker for being a paralegal? Also is a certificate program worth it?
No, it's not. You need to find a firm that is sensitive to people with disabilities. Perhaps a SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY firm. Or a personal injury firm that has a strong support staff.
you are way too old. You should think about retiring today. Don't waste your time or money, hang out in your garden, feed the dolphins, raise sheep, swim with the fish, or sit all day in your rocking chair. Please don't waste your time.
Great Great video - I was a lit paralegal a long time ago 2008-2017 and I faded into nursing, what can I do to get into nursing and law? would love your input, I am signing up for your courses since it has been a long time since I was in the legal field. 🤩
I’m a nurse too and looking to become a paralegal. I’d like to somewhat combine both skills as well. So, I have been looking into working for workers comp or bodily injury firms where medical knowledge/terminology is helpful :)
No, I was a Math College teacher for ten years, at the age of 42, I went back to college for a paralegal Associates, My first job was at the Sheriff's Office as a receptionist. Today I'm 46 and I just landed a job with the Court of Appeals. I use to think the same, my age, my background, no experience. JUST GO FOR IT, start by getting a certificate, and do not get discourage to be rejected. YOU CAN DO THIS.!!!
Ugh .... I hate math. However, if you're taking a job where you need to prepare a damages or billing summary or a settlement statement, having those math skills certainly help.

I have a Bachelor's degree in Family & Consumer Science and want to become a Paralegal in Family Law. I know nothing about Law but really want to learn. I'm hoping to enter in the field as a legal secretary or assistant. Any tips or books I can pickup to prepare?
I would suggest that you enroll in a paralegal course so that you can achieve certification. Then, you can seek out law firms that will allow you opportunity to get plenty of training and experience. It'll be tough for awhile, but the tougher it is the better your skills will become. There's plenty of work out there so don't worry about that. I am an independent paralegal with my own business and I work with attorney-clients exclusively on contract. I would not trade my career path for anything in the world. My contract fees range from $25 to $75 per hour, and I'm never without contract assignments. You are on an excellent site for beginning a paralegal career.
Look at the Child Support Office, in my area they are constantly looking for this kind of help, even if you don't know much about law, more likely than not they will train you. Good Luck!!!
@@stella_blu6291 Funny you say that bc I just applied for a Child Support job a month ago. They ranked me as best qualified but haven't gotten back to me yet. Hoping to hear from them soon 🤞🏾
Answer to question number 2. The only concern I have is, since female paralegals dominate the industry. Do male paralegals have disadvantage when looking for jobs? Some even say lawyers and customers look male paralegal down because they didn't go to law school to become a lawyer. Thank you

I wanted to be a paralegal but there is too many women. I feel like its only women, at least Nursing you can see guys, but the paralegal career is 90% females.

I wanted to be a paralegal but there is too many women. I feel like its only women, at least Nursing you can see guys, but the paralegal career is 90% females.
Why would that be an issue?
