“The US Department of Labor website states that employment of paralegals and legal assistants is projected to grow 28% between 2008 and 2018, much faster than the average for all occupations, and they regularly rank the paralegal field as one of the fastest growing in the nation,” said Deborah Vinecour, Esq., Chair/Associate Professor, Paralegal Program. Vinecour, who has been in the field for 20 years notes, “There are so many different varieties of paralegal work, and RCC offers a good generalized paralegal education. It’s a wonderful starting point for anyone.”
