What are legal assistants?

Legal assistants, also known as paralegals, are professionals who support lawyers by performing a variety of tasks such as conducting legal research, drafting documents, organizing files, and managing case information. They help ensure that attorneys are well-prepared for meetings, hearings, and trials by handling much of the administrative and preparatory work. While legal assistants are knowledgeable about legal procedures and terminology, they are not licensed to practice law and cannot provide legal advice to clients.
