Another non lawyer's take on being a non lawyer,

This review is from: 50 Legal Careers for Non-Lawyers (Paperback)
I am glad I only paid $5 for this book instead of buying it new $20 something. This book did not tell me anything that I did not already know. After reading the parts that I thought would interest me, such as How to offer Freelance Paralegal services, there was no step by step instructions on how to break into any area of the legal field let alone offering Freelance legal services. Thanks to this book, I changed my major from Bachelors in Paralegal Studies to Bachelors in Legal Studies, clearly the opportunities are still with lawyers rather than NON LAWYERS. Don't fool yourselves folks, Go to law school! If you want to teach paralegal or legal studies at an Online University, guess what you need? That's right.... A LAW DEGREE and/or some other Graduate level degree or Doctorate with so many years of experience in the field you want to teach in. Don't believe me? Go apply for one of those educational positions in undergrad legal studies with just a teaching bachelors...even the joke universities will not call you back...

This is a fine reference work. It is better for an attorney than a paralegal.
