But after they’ve got you enrolled and you’re in the paralegalcertificate program, it would be helpful for you to also hear the downsides of being a paralegal so that you can be better prepared for your new career. I’m not saying I didn’t enjoy that moot court competition.
in Alberta, for example, a paralegal is not allowed to represent another person in court, but they can in Ontario or British Columbia. Law Clerk – This term is commonly used in Ontario and denotes someone who does a mix of administrative and substantive tasks, but is usually less substantive than that of a paralegal.
In addition, paralegals are typically well paid with the median salary for a paralegal being approximately $60,970 annually as of 2023. There are also opportunities to focus on specific fields like healthcare law, real estate law, corporate law, contractlaw, and intellectual property law.
