I’ve worked as a paralegal for about four years now, and I really enjoy it. When I’m at work I can actually freely exercise my pedantic, argumentative, overly analytical side. Most people find those tendencies of mine obnoxious, so I try to suppress them when around family and friends. But at work those tendencies are actually incredibly useful.
And I’d like to be a fantastic advocate for people who need an advocate. I’ve seen how important it is for folks to hire a good lawyer when they’ve got legal woes. It can be life-changing.
Also, law is fun. I want to do more of the stuff that lawyers do. In other words, I want to keep doing the fun stuff I’m doing now (research, analysis, etc.), while doing less of the boring secretarial stuff.
