Paralegal Studies Coordinator:
Prof. Charles
Holland Welcome to the home page of the Paralegal
Studies curriculum at the Takoma Park/Silver Spring campus of Montgomery
College. This curriculum is designed for students who wish to pursue a
career in a law office as a paraprofessional. A legal assistant is a
trained specialist who can manage a law office operation, relieving a
practicing attorney of those routine sections of cases that require
knowledge of the legal process, and assisting the attorney with handling
of complicated legal problems. The legal assistant also assists the
attorney in legal research and in the design and development of new
procedures, techniques, services, and processes for the law office. The
legal assistant can also prepare and interpret legal documents and analyze
procedural problems through the selection, compilation, and use of
technical information from various legal references.
Both degree and certificate program options are available. Paralegal Studies Certificate Program Description
