Editor's Note
by Rhonda J. Brashears
Happy Spring TPJ readers! I hope this issue finds you and yours happy, healthy and ready for a great rest of the year. This issue contains lots of informative articles, as well as several key dates for upcoming Paralegal Division events.
We are honored to have a featured article on identity theft by Scott Durfee. No matter your area of practice, this ever growing crime could not only affect your clients, but you personally. In addition to an overview of the Texas laws dealing with identity theft, Mr. Durfee gives some tips on how to avoid becoming a victim and what to do if it should happen to you.
Also, now is the time for you to decide to become more involved in the Division. Your district directors are in the process of providing names of committee volunteers to the Board of Directors. All that the Paralegal Division is able to for its members is accomplished by its volunteering members. There are several opportunities for you, both big and small. For example, you can help with membership, CLE in your local area, and even with the
TPJ; the list goes on and on. Contact your district director if you think you would be interested in helping the Division be everything you want it to be; he or she will be able to find a place for you.
As always, feel free to contact me with your questions or comments.
