Utah became the second state--as far as I know--to approve what they are calling "Limited Practice Paralegals." (Washington was the first.) A paralegal in Utah with an associate's degree and some form of certification will be able to apply for an LPP license. LPPs will be able to help clients fill out legal forms, prepare settlements and represent them in mediated negotiations. The task force in charge of the new license anticipates that they will be employed primarily in family law, evictions, and debt collection.

A blog largely about the Ivy Tech Paralegal program, but not sponsored by Ivy Tech. Because, you know, they have rules.
About Me
I started this blog as a way of building an online community of current and past Ivy Tech paralegal students, as well as letting people interested in our program know what we're up to. This blog is not sponsored by Ivy Tech. No way, no how.
My name is Linda Kampe, and I'm the program chair of Paralegal Studies in Lafayette, Indiana. My office is in Ivy Hall 1166. Stop by and chat. For best results, make an appointment, so I know to expect you. And if you bring your own cup, I'll make you tea. Because hey, we're not animals.
