There are several important steps in becoming a professional paralegal. However, the one that is most often overlooked is constructing a resume. Resumes are important for almost any job you are pursuing, but they are especially important for paralegals due to the competitive nature of the field. Law firms only want to hire the best paralegals, which means your resume needs to distinguish you from the other candidates.

In 2009 I ventured out of my comfort box and formed Digital Paralegal Services, LLC®. I began offering my services to attorneys across the country on a virtual basis from my home in Guthrie, Oklahoma. Has it been hard? Has it been worth it? Absolutely. Progress was slow.
