Another great point -- we need to be very clear about our specific training. We need to live up to the image we create! Thanks, Laurie, for adding to the discussion!

I don't actually have a concern working for lawyers outside of my own country, but I think that is due to the type of work I tend to do (often more on the admin side). I am always very clear about my training and where I live and I DO NOT provide legal services to non-lawyers. Anyway - just wanted to comment on such a good post! Good points Cathy.

Cathy,

Another point virtual paralegals should always keep in mind:

A paralegal’s title shall clearly indicate the individual’s status and shall be disclosed in all business and professional communications to avoid misunderstandings and misconceptions about the paralegal’s role and responsibilities.
