Paralegal Power to the People! Santa Monica - Dean McAdams ...

After attending UCLA paralegal school and then working in law firms, insurance companies and reading law for over twenty years I understand how the entire system really works. The founding fathers of America never went to law school or took bar exams; they simply "read" law.  After a hard day of splitting logs, Abraham Lincoln read Black's Law by the firelight and then went out and became a successful lawyer because Honest Abe solved people's problems for a very reasonable one silver dollar.  And Abe may not have always filed a lawsuit to solve those problems, which is why I am so into [more...]

paralegal by day rockstar by night

I left Louisiana in Dec 1987 and moved to Houston. I attended Art Institute of Houston and graduated with a degree in Commercial Art in January 1990. I worked as a men's clothing designer at a company called Scope Imports from Jan 1990 to Oct of 1993. I left there and did this and that for a while (mostly the things 20 somethings do when they are single) then decided I had better go back to school. I attended University of Houston in pursuit of an Art History degree from Spring 1995 thru Fall 1996. Things weren't going so well for me financially, so I decided to move back to Slidell in Dec [more...]

Southington pays less than $10,000 each year toward maintaining the probate court, springing for items such as paper, postage and scanning documents.
