Practice Management for Paralegals, 2nd Edition

Michelle Roy McSpurren, Rosemary Bocska
Available

The only resource of its kind, Practice Management for Paralegals, 2nd Edition assists students in understanding the legal rules, obligations, and mechanics of owning and operating a successful paralegal practice. 

This text offers key insights into the guiding principles and management techniques of paralegal practice with a focus on the Paralegal Professional Conduct Guidelines and Paralegal Rules of Conduct. It clearly addresses different types of businesses, budgeting and financial planning, advertising strategies, insurance considerations, client retention, employment practices, client file management, and more.  

The second edition contains a new chapter devoted to hiring and employment practices and expanded chapters on marketing one’s business and setting fees. It also incorporates numerous practical resources, including a revised business plan, “Planning for Practice” scenarios, a checklist on items to include in a cash flow analysis, as well as new “Career Profile” Interviews with self-employed paralegals from across Ontario. 

This in-depth exploration of pertinent topics paired with practical elements provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of practice management and will help instill confidence in their ability to run their own paralegal firm.
