This week on Studying Law Around the World, I had the privilege of hosting a fascinating discussion with John-Paul Rodrigues and Justin D. Rochester.
Ontario holds a truly unique position in the global legal landscape. It is one of the only jurisdictions in the world that independently licenses and regulates paralegals to provide direct legal services to the public.
John-Paul is a lawyer, an award winning legal instructor, and the Paralegal Program Coordinator at triOS College. Justin is a highly respected licensed paralegal practicing criminal law with over 7,000 court appearances. Together, they are the co-founders of The Paralegal TownHall. In this episode, we dismantle the myths surrounding the profession and explore why the future of access to justice relies on lawyers and paralegals working side by side.
