Paralegal
Även känt som: Legal Paralegal · Litigation Support Specialist
Supports lawyers or in-house counsel with case research, litigation preparation and management of legal documentation without acting as a lawyer themselves.
The paralegal does the fact-finding, source comparison and file building on which the lawyer or in-house counsel bases their legal judgement. Unlike the legal officer, they often work on more complex, international or litigation files without needing a law degree. Selection in practice fails on distinguishing candidates who order facts thoroughly from those who let legal conclusions creep unnoticed into their summaries.
