Fast read, packed with information!

I originally purchased this book for my friend, who was considering pursuing a paralegal certificate to help with a career change. Before giving it to him, I managed to read this book in its entirety. With only my brief academic background in law (Business Law I & II, and Law of the Workplace) I found this book to be an enjoyable, easy read, and full of useful information and insight into the paralegal industry. (Not to mention a CD full of bonus material.) I also found it intriguing that this book was written by the founders of The Center for Legal Studies, providers of paralegal courses in many of this country's junior colleges. (The same course, as it were, that my friend will be taking in the coming months.) While I don't know how good it will be as preparation for the course, I'm relatively certain that the two have some interrelated elements that may prove useful.

Excellent buy

I am currently a full time paralegal student. I will be graduating in December 2007. This book has covered some of the same information I have learned in my courses. If you are a paralegal student, or someone who may be thinking about going to school to become a paralegal student. I would recommend that you purchase this book. The DVD is superb with example of memo's, briefs, resumes.This is a must have for anyone who is a paralegal for your library reference.. I want to thank the authors of this book so much.

Great resource!

This book says it all! I have been instructing paralegal courses for fifteen years, and have seen and used many texts. This one is by far one of the best, if not the best! It clearly and concisely covers pretty much everything a paralegal should know in an easy to understand format. The CD included with the book contains samples of documents and references to many, many important resources. I would highly recommend it for practicing paralegals, as well as anyone interested in the field of paralegalism! While the book is not a substitute for formal education, it goes a long way towards filling in the gaps in education for paralegals trained "in-house," as well as for those who have completed (or plan to complete) a paralegal program.

Thinking of a Paralegal Career?

Are you thinking of becoming a legal professional? Have you considered a career as a paralegal? Paralegals are legal professionals who assist lawyers but don't have to spend 3 years in law school! If you are thinking of becoming a paralegal this may be the book for you. Paralegal Career for Dummies gives you an in-depth picture of the profession and introduces you to some of the concepts you will be working with as a paralegal. By the time you have completed this informative book and the accompanying CD-ROM you will not only know much more about the paralegal profession, but also how to get started on your paralegal career.
