Inhaltsangabe

For Introduction to Paralegal courses.

• In the paralegal field, we are just beginning to see how the apparent impersonal dot-com world cross-pollinates the field of law. Despite our culture's full entry into the electronic era, human beings, not Intel chips, continue to power the paralegal world. After all, the impact of one paralegal's job on a matter, case, or client is a highly personal experience. Word of mouth or the smile on an attorney's or client's face from a job well done by a paralegal beats out the Internet each and every time.
• This Third edition will guide reader's to transform their career. Readers will be rewarded with wonderful relationships with bosses, coworkers, and peers.
