The Paralegal profession is a career which assists lawyers in their daily tasks that enable them to focus on their clients. While lawyers represent their clients in court, Paralegals are responsible for various organization tasks, composing documents, and conducting legal research to strengthen the lawyer's case.
Paralegal duties would typically involve preparing legal documents, research, admin, providing quotes to clients, interviewing clients and witnesses, giving clients legal information, going to court and handling a caseload of clients.
You'll hear contrasting figures about the number of paralegals, usually anywhere between 60,000 and 300,000 paralegals. At present CILEx represents the largest number of them in England and Wales.
