Program Description
Offers students a solid foundation of core legal knowledge and essential skills necessary for a career in the legal profession. A paralegal is employed by a law office, business, or government agency, and performs specifically delegated substantive legal work for which a lawyer is responsible. Graduates may enter the workforce as a paralegal or continue their education by transferring to a four-year baccalaureate-degree institution. Paralegals must work under the supervision of an attorney. Paralegals are not lawyers and are not permitted to provide legal services directly to the public except as permitted by law.
