The credits for LPP’s are processed the same way as for attorneys.
Paralegals: Should a paralegal need CLE credit, the paralegal should notify LawPracticeCLE of their paralegal status, so the Accreditation Administration team can seek accreditation with the NALA for approval in their state via reciprocity.
LawPracticeCLE partners with judges, attorneys, and paralegals to produce hundreds of hours each year of the most unique and beneficial continuing legal education on the market!
