3.0 out of 5 stars short book, quick read, February 28, 2006
This review is from: A Survival Guide for Paralegals: Tips from the Trenches (Paralegal Reference Materials) (Paperback)
This book was okay. It did not live up to my expectations however. The "tips" were general and not things you don't already know. It's not worth the money, but maybe check it out from the library. Some information was usefeul.

1.0 out of 5 stars A Survival Guide for Paralegals, June 30, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: A Survival Guide for Paralegals: Tips from the Trenches (Paralegal Reference Materials) (Paperback)
I am looking for my first job in the paralegal field, and thought this book would be more helpful so far as providing insight into the various areas within the field. However, there are only two chapters that cover specific specialties in the field, one on litigation and the other describes the corporate culture. The rest of the book deals with very general topics, such as how to get along with people in the office, how to be organized, how to deal with stress. Give me a break!
