Before you became a legal assistant did you have any experience with drafting any of the documents or in the field ?

I'm looking into becoming a LAA, would you say that overall, the job is very repetitive/boring? That is what a lot of people I've been talking to have been warning me about.
@lifewithicie Күн бұрын
@@kylie2800 hmm I’m not familiar with the term LAA specifically apologies but if you’re referring to a legal assistant, I would say it comes down to experience and also which department you are in because it will vary. Obviously the more proficient you get at something, there will be aspects that will be habitual/ repetitive but I think that’s common in any job over time :)

so, I have a question to ask you! if one wants to get a job as a Legal Assistant do you have to go for law as well? I am a BA in PSYCHOLOGY degree major and I want to see if I can get a job as a Legal Assistant with that degree! I want to see if its possible to get a Legal Assistant job with just a BA in Psychology degree and just stick with that job either part time or full time i know i keep asking you this. but i want to be sure

It really depends on what city you live in and also how much the law firm pays you! Rent prices vary state to state, city to city, etc. Also, how much of financial savings someone already has can make a difference. I can say that in San Diego it is one of the more expensive cities which is why I downsized to save more money in the long term.

Many years ago, when I was preparing for the LSAT, I took the Princeton Review Prep Course. It costs around $2000. You will have a set schedule of your choosing. I had great results! I think an in-person format is the most beneficial. Also with content creating, you are so young and it is a dying art. Get the money while the getting is good, but I definitely would advise against putting all your eggs in that basket. I’m also not necessarily recommending that you choose law. It is a rewarding career but the work-life balance is often a struggle so it’s needs to be something you truly love doing. Lots to consider, I know, but you will figure it out!

hi! I have a question to ask you! for the legal assistant position are there a lot of jobs all over united states? I am currently in NY state, does NYC have a Lote of job opportunities available? if I want to relocate, to a state outside of NY are their jobs available? also, I don't drive (I don't have a permit or license) and I don't have a car, are there means of public transportation to get to work all over the United Sates? also how is the job market for legal assistants? is this career and job a stable and secure career? is there a difference between the salary of full-time work or part time work? I am trying to see that If I continue to pursue a BA in Psychology degree, that I can get a secure and good paying job as a legal assistant will having a BA in Psychology degree help me get a good full time or part time paying job as a legal assistant? I hope it will, and I hope to see if I can stay in NY, and take the bus or train to NYC If I can't find a job in NY I hope to find a job elsewhere, and or do you think I should look at remote work? are there legal assistant positions available to work remote? I hope you can answer my questions

Hi Icie, I know making life decisions can be hard. I would say pray and ask God to guide your steps. A few years back I made a career change thinking this lady was my friend and it turned out to be the worst mistake of my life. I left a government job. I didn’t pray about it and she treated me like crap. Since then I was blessed enough to get a job had an immigration law firm and I absolutely love it.
