Everyone likes to see their name in print...well...almost
everyone! If you would like to see your’s, all you have to do is
submit an article to The Texas Paralegal Journal. It doesn’t have to
be a tome—it can be as short as one-half page. Or if you have more
to say, you can take up to five (5) single-spaced, typewritten pages.
If you need ideas, take a look at the following suggestion:
Criminal Law: Concealed Handgun Law;
Pre-Litigation: Subrogation, Interview Techniques, Obtaining a Proper
Witness Statement;
Litigation: Trial Notebooks, Organization of Complex Document
Production, Use of Databases, "On-the-Road" (working on a
case out of your immediate area-what you need to know);
Corporate/Business Law;
Immigration;
Environmental Law;
Maritime and Admiralty
Products Liability;
Medical Malpractice (including the role of the nurse/paralegal); Real Estate;
Entertainment and Intellectual Property;
Non-Traditional Roles for Legal Assistants;
Pro Bono
These are only a few ideas for
potential articles. If you feel you don’t have anything to
contribute, you probably know someone who does. Either contact them
directly, or let us know their information and we will track them
down. We are also looking for suggestions for
"Paralegal Pointers" "Law & Disorder" and our
"Web Wizards" columns. Also welcome are your comments and
criticisms of our publications and website.
