Why do you want to know? If you want to employ one to do it don't it is worthwhile getting a proper lawyer. If you are a paralegal and want to find out where you can work without lawyer supervision just go get a law degree

It depends.  If you signed an employment contract with them that said they could do that then yes, they can.  It also depends on the state that you are in and the job that you were doing and why you owed them money.  Sometimes attorneys will answer a few questions for free over the phone or have you pay a small consultation fee to meet with them.  If it is a significant amount of money I would recommend talking to an attorney.  Remember Paralegals cannot give legal advice.

You can file the case in court without a lawyer and represent yourself.  The court will provide you with a lawyer from the free legal assistance group.  Just be sure to complete the requirements and gather evidence to prove that your dismissal from employment was illegal.

There is not a legal service that allows this.

No, no, no. This will not happen. First, a trial is very time consuming. For the lawyer, time is money. If his client doesn't consent to a trial, why should the lawyer want to do something which will cost him time without someone willing to pay the bill? Second, and perhaps more important, if a lawyer goes against the will of his client, he is open to being sued by the client, and sanctioned (fined, punished) by the state. A lawyer can advise a client that a trial would be the best approach, but the lawyer must, absolutely must, abide by the client's wishes.

i once looked in to becoming a paralegal and they are not permitted to help people, i think most of you should know that a paralegal most of the time knows more then a lawyer does a paralegal is the one who goes out and does most of all the research for the lawyer.

You can prepare a "living trust" without an attorney.  Many libraries and book stores have information on estate planning.

As a paralegal, I can do anything your attorney can do except represent you in court.  I cannot accept a case, set a fee, or give legal advice.  I must know a wide variety of legal concepts, be organized, have an understanding of state and local rules, be diplomatic and trustworthy.  I also have a Bachelor of Science degree with a paralegal major...not necessary but it gives a great edge when competing for a job.

I do not know of any. It will depend on where you are, and what you need it for. You may still need an officical copy from the police for the Lawyer. Why isn't the Lawyer getting it?

Sure you can represent yourself if you know what to do.  Did you try asking the lawyer who represented you?  Two other possibilities: the Public Defender Service might give you the forms to use at no charge; or go online, and search for "Expungment of Court Records in (your state)" and see what you can find.

Lawyer or no lawyer, if you have a case going, make sure the judge knows your taking the child over the state line.

A number of occupations call for specialized knowledge of the law but fall short of the need for a lawyer. Should a paralegal become disenchanted with his or her career, there are possibilities in law enforcement or as an insurance claims adjuster, occupational safety and health officer, patent agent, and title examiner. And there is always the option of ultimately becoming a lawyer.
