Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - YOU SHOULD AVOID WORKING FOR ATTORNEYS
I gave this book one star, not because I read the book but because I used to be a paralegal and came across this book when ordering books online in preparation for my career change.

I would strongly recommend against any profession in the legal arena unless you want to become an atty. Working for attys is unpleasant to say the least. The hostile environment of a law firm is stressful, and I've seen a few legal secretaries go out on stress leave. Seeing a law staff member cry at work ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Intro to Paralegalism
This book was in excellent condition and I was happy it arrived sooner than the estimated shipping time indicated. I would buy from this seller again.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Excellent Purchase
This book is a must for those considering a paralegal career. The book is very detailed, with good examples and offers several excercises. You'll want to keep this book when the semester ends; no need to do a re-sale on this item.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Truly Excellent Source Book for Paralegals
I don't understand the negative reviews of this book. I think the reviewers confused it with another book. This is a big solid book full of information for paralegals and paralegal students.

We used it in the intro class, where we learned all about the paralegal profession, the legal research class, which we used in conjunction with learning how to do legal research via ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A students perspective...
The book is a wonderful source of information and is organized in such a way that it's easy to read right through and not feel lost by lack of verbal explanations. But, the font size is very small which makes it difficult to study or read for extended periods withough resting your eyes. It's also thick and very heavy. We use this book in our Paralegal class at George Mason University.
