Good Intentions

Having your own system of filing will not work for a successful paralegal. Your organization must be logical and easy for others to follow. Remember, all the research you do could either make or break the client’s case.

3. You must work well with limited supervision. If you require a boss standing over your shoulder reminding you that your work is due soon, don’t consider a career as a paralegal. For one, the attorney or business person you work for will not have time to be your deadline reminder. And, don’t expect that just because your boss says you have two weeks to complete a case file that he or she won’t say they absolutely need it two days later.

4. You must work well under pressure. As you gather research about a case, little facts could pop up that change the entire course of your research. If you get frustrated easily, being a paralegal might not be the career choice you should make. An adaptable person succeeds as a legal assistant.
