I knew I wanted to be a paralegal since I was in jr High school. My mother was a paralegal and I would sit up a lot of nights asking her questions about what she did. We would bond by her teaching me things I didn’t know about the career field. You could say I got some paralegal training early and this helped me decide that it was something I wanted to pursue. She pointed me out to a good school and showed me what I needed to do in high school to make sure I got accepted into a good school later.
