DESCRIPTION:Southeastern Association of Legal Assistants (SEALA)\nSession #1: Multi-Paralegal \nSession 1 Agenda: 2026-SEALA-SEMINAR-BROCHURE-needs-NALA-approval.doc \nLearning Objectives: \n1. Assets: I want to discuss how our contribution as legal assistants and paralegals is important. In my experience\, I have become efficient in drafting pleadings\, help prep for trials\, help with research\, and all of these skills have allowed the attorney I work for to focus on the bigger issues or bigger aspects of the cases. Our qualities and skills are a huge asset.\n2. Healthy Relationships: In this discussion I will explain how building healthy professional relationships with the attorney you work under\, as well as your co-workers\, help you become more efficient. You build trust\, making it for an easier work environment and ultimately enjoyable. Of course it is not always smiles and laughter\, but having a good relationship also helps during busy\, stressful and tense times. Also learning how the attorney works and what they need/like.\n3. Specializing in areas: I find it very useful to specialize in areas. I am not saying stick to one area. In this firm\, Herb specializes in Maritime Law\, specifically an area in worker’ compensation. While we do other areas as well\, I have become very familiar with this area. This allows me to manage the cases better and alleviates the attorney’s workload. \nSession #2: Pro Bono: Closing the Justice Gap in Georgia \nSession 2 Agenda: 2026-SEALA-SEMINAR-BROCHURE-needs-NALA-approval1.doc \nLearning Objectives: \n1.
