Jobs in the Legal Field

There is always a need for more people to work in law. Becoming a legal secretary or assistant takes little to no extra education, and can be done without a bachelor’s degree. Paralegals usually hold either a bachelor’s degree in a related field, or an associate’s degree in paralegal studies or something similar.

Degrees and licenses can be earned online, at home, and in your spare time. You can find information for online education and certification as a paralegal at National Paralegal College, or at a local community college or university.

Court reporting is also a career that you can train for online or in a classroom, and it doesn’t take long to become certified. There are many online resources to help you find the right program for you, like the National Court Reporter Association website. Working in the legal field, you can make between $30,000 and $60,000 annually.
