something big going down in clown town

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not post personal information. This includes but is not limited to full names, addresses, phone numbers and so on.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.
Do not solicit money, Dreamwidth points, or other currency unless you are offering a good or service in return.

Paralegal

I've done both litigation (medical malpractice) at a law firm and corporate in-house.

how long did it take you to get your degree?

I actually wound up not needing a paralegal certificate to get hired at my first paralegal job right out of college, but a colleague of mine at the law firm studied for hers while she was being hired and it took her about a year!

Which did you prefer - litigation or the in-house?

I definitely prefer in-house - when you work for defense firms they make you track all your billable hours and it can become very micromanagey especially when the clients start cracking down on what type of work we can bill for and how much we can bill for it. At least with in-house I've been able to focus on just getting the jobs done without agonizing over whether I'm making some monthly quota. Plus I like being able to do cross-departmental work, you meet a lot of interesting people.

Dumbass question maybe, but what is the difference between a paralegal and a law clerk?

Re: Paralegal

nta but in my area a paralegal is someone who hasn’t gone to law school and provides support to lawyers while a law clerk is either

- an attorney who does research and writing for a judge
- someone who graduated law school but has not passed a bar exam yet, or
- a law student doing an internship
