What is the job of a Paralegal?

"Paralegal" and "legal assistant" are basically two names for the same profession. A "paralegal" is a person able to contract with or who has employment at a law firm or other agency and is performing substantial legal work with the supervision of a member of the California State Bar defined by Section 6060. This qualified person may also work for an attorney practicing federal law in this state.
