Criminal Litigation Paralegal Certificate
Lawyers shown on TV shows and in movies are often criminal defense lawyers or prosecutors, and helping them interview clients, prepare cases, and draft complaints is often the job of a paralegal who specialized in criminal litigation. Criminal litigation paralegals or legal assistants are highly organized people who help lawyers in criminal cases. This certificate can be of great benefit if you’re looking to specialize in your paralegal career or start a brand-new path. Either way, Continuing Education at Bryant & Stratton College can help prepare you to reach your next goal.
