Trial Prep for Paralegals presents an in-depth guide for paralegals as they assist attorneys through all stages of litigation, from client intake to appeals. The book begins with an overview of the litigation process, provides a sample case to illustrate the paralegal’s role, and closes with helpful information on ethical dangers and how to handle stress.

This helpful guidebook is a must-have for litigation paralegals.

Issues regularly facing paralegals and attorneys are examined, including the paralegal’s appropriate role and responsibility to timely communicate with clients.
