Approved by the American Bar Association since 1978, the Inver Hills Paralegal program prepares our graduates to work under the supervision of attorneys in civil and criminal matters. Paralegal work in a range of legal practices, such as probate, wills and estates, real estate, employment law, transactional and corporate law. Please note that paralegals cannot give legal advice, represent clients in court, or otherwise engage in the unauthorized practice of law. The practice of law by non-attorneys is strictly prohibited by law.

Program graduates are prepared to assume the general and ethical responsibilities of paralegals, having completed quality, practical coursework (primarily in an online synchronous class format), which includes a paralegal internship.
