As defined by the National Federation of Paralegal Associations, a Paralegal is a person, qualified through education, training or work experience to perform substantive legal work that requires knowledge of legal concepts and is customarily, but not exclusively, performed by a lawyer. This person may be retained or employed by a lawyer, law office, governmental agency or other entity or may be authorized by administrative, statutory or court authority to perform this work. See NFPA Website Home Page.
ArPA is looking forward to what 2015 is going to bring to our association. There are many events going on throughout the year that ArPA has been instrumental in assisting with to promote and advance the paralegal profession.
