Program Highlights
- Paralegal Regulation
- This presentation is informative only; it is not a debate
- Paralegal Ethics Training Equals Better Legal Service
Program Description
UPL, Paralegal Regulation and Ethics are closely intertwined. It's hard to mention one of these topics without speaking of the others. This program will review these three familiar and sometimes controversial subjects.
UPL – Make sure you know the facts. We continue to see charges. For instance, “LOS ANGELES – A Colorado based paralegal was charged…with conspiracy and other counts for the unauthorized practice of law in a bankruptcy court”. (See, Paralegal Gateway's Weblog 4/30/2008)
Ethics - Over the past 30 years the role of a paralegal has expanded. Now, paralegals are professionals in their own right - through education, training or work experience. One important factor of professionalism is client communication. It is like an equation;
Paralegal Ethics Training (PET) + Client Communication (CC) = Better Client Service. (BCS)
Regulation - Did you know almost half of the States have adopted or are considering some kind of licensing / regulation of paralegals? Find out what has happened in other states. James Coyle, Esq. has researched the issue of regulation in many states and will share the outcome.
