Program Description The Oulton College Paralegal/Legal Assistant Diploma Program allows students to experience the excitement and high-stakes world of law. Paralegals and Legal Assistants are an essential part of the legal team. Individuals will be tasked with assisting lawyers in all major areas of law, including civil litigation, criminal, family, estates, corporate and property. Students will be taught how to prepare legal correspondence and court documents to a high professional standard, and trained to research case law and statutes to be able to apply that research in case studies. Graduates work primarily with lawyers to help manage their client files and prepare for court proceedings, but that is not the only path open to graduates. The skills students obtain with this diploma will also prepare them for work in corporate legal departments, government agencies, insurance companies and real estate agencies. Students will be taught by experienced legal professionals who will give them the insight and training necessary to succeed in a legal career. Instructors will ensure that students master the required skills through extensive practice, collaboration, and real-world experiences.
