Leah Fischer: Why Become a Paralegal?

Leah Fischer enjoys working in the legal services industry – a field in which she has flourished for more than six years. Currently a paralegal working on a case-by-case basis, Fischer is rewarded by the opportunity to provide law firms, attorneys and legal teams the support and services they need to take on the challenges of a complex legal system – and to provide clients the focused representation they deserve.




 Leah Fischer knows well the rewards of paralegal work – benefits that include:


  • An ongoing intellectual challenge. Paralegals must not only become experts in the specialty or field of law they’re working – they must also stay abreast of ever-changing legal trends, interface with attorneys, clients and opposing counsel, and solve complex problems on a daily basis

  • Growing prestige. As the position of paralegal evolves and becomes more complex, so does its prestige in the workplace. Paralegals have risen to become invaluable and respected members of the legal community.
