IPA’s 3rd Annual State of the Paralegal Profession – Wrap Up

Samantha Misch

On August 6, the IPA proudly hosted its 3rd Annual State of the Paralegal Profession, bringing together legal professionals from several states to explore the evolving role of paralegals including paralegal licensure and the challenges and goals associated with it.  Our presenters shared how licensing has enabled them to serve their communities more directly and effectively. The event also emphasized the importance of continued education and reinforced that paralegals can significantly and positively impact access to justice. Staying educated and informed allows paralegals to rise to the challenges and opportunities that present themselves.

Paralegal Day Celebration

Winners of our Starbucks gift card raffle will be announced tomorrow! Thank you to all our members who participated in and shared our giveaway. This was a new idea for celebrating paralegals by giving back to our members in a way all paralegals will enjoy – coffee!
