My response:

I have two paralegals in my office - - besides clerical and secretarial staff.

Paralegals, I believe, are wonderful. I think of them as "stage crew" behind the curtain of a wonderful play. Their function, as in a play, is to assist in making the star of the show (the attorney) look terrific. And mine do.

Glad to hear an attorney speak up in support of his/her paralegals.

Jessica, I know you asked for lawyer's input. Would you like a paralegal's input?
