FAQ1

The National Federation of Paralegal Associations defines the freelance paralegal as:
"A freelance paralegal, also known as a contract paralegal, is no different than a
traditional paralegal except to the extent that s/he is not employed by an attorney in a
traditional setting such as a law firm, governmental entity or corporation. Rather, a
freelance paralegal is retained on an as-needed basis by many supervising attorneys in
these settings. Freelance paralegals are educated and qualified to perform paralegal
work just the same as traditionally-employed paralegals."
