Paralegals Back to School: It’s a New (Tech) World

The legal profession was already going online and high-tech. But COVID disruptions, working from home, and remote legal processes have supercharged those changes.

Are you up to speed? 

Host Jill Francisco – a veteran paralegal and classroom instructor – interviews attorney and longtime professor Todd Richardson about today’s classroom experience. It’s more than lectures and books. Today’s learning includes new technology, working collaboratively online and in person, and leveraging digital tools to expedite cases, gather information, and navigate the modern legal jungle.

Richardson explores how legal education is changing and how vital learning today’s tech keeps a paralegal valued and vital in the workplace.

He also touches on areas where soft skills still play an important role. Knowing how to integrate tech with interpersonal skills can build and maintain relationships so important in the legal community.
