Editorial Reviews

Review
The depth of coverage is excellent. The explanations are clear and the appropriate vocabulary level for my college students. The amount of coverage is excellent for our survey courses.– Susan Belkin, Mercy College

"West Paralegal Today contains everything I want and need to teach in my course. The extras such as, ’Developing Paralegal Skills, ’Featured Guest’, and ’Paralegal Profile’ bring the material to life and in a most colorful way."– Dora Dye, City College of San Francisco

Product Description
Paralegal Today: The Legal Team at Work, fourth edition, makes the paralegal field come alive for the student. It uses real-world examples, offering practical application of each concept discussed, and further enhances this focus with hands-on activities throughout. The text gives the student a thorough introduction to not only the legal system in general, but to specific areas of the law and the paralegal's integral role as a member of the legal team. The student gains a comprehensive understanding of the laws in our society, the importance of ethical and professional responsibility, and the skills needed to thrive in this environment. Technology features, including spotlights on how technology is changing litigation, legal research, and overall office management, convey the importance of developing strong skills in this area. "Paralegal Profiles" and "Featured Guests" bring a personal touch to the material - as students learn how professionals truly work in each area of the law and how each skill directly translates on-the-job. Ethical dilemmas challenge the students to further understand their professional duties and critical thinking questions provide an opportunity to sharpen their proficiency. In this way, paralegal students learn not only about the substantive areas of the law, but how to excel as a professional in each one.

4.0 out of 5 stars west's paralegal, March 24, 2006
By LouJen (California) - See all my reviews
The book is very informative and easy to read although the authors describe old laws/rules in great detail, only to find out that the law has changed and everything that you read is void. Of course they describe the revisions but I found the old information a waste of my time and also annoying.

5.0 out of 5 stars Required text yet informative at the same time, December 22, 2007
By S (LA, CA USA) - See all my reviews
Even though this text was a required for the course I was taking at the time the book had insightful information for those of us who are considering a career change into paralegal profession. This book supported the practical classroom lecture. From my own perspective if you really want something to give an overview of what the paralegal profession involves this might be for those of you with no prior knowledge. But a bit redundant for those who are in the field.
