<p>So I’m currently 17 and a senior in high school. My dad’s a lawyer and I’ve worked in his office since I was 11. This year he’s going to take me with him to CLE’s and teach me how to do Title Searches and the like, so that I can properly learn to be a legal assistant. I turn 18 in June, so that’s right after graduation. Once I’m 18, I’ll be able to help with everything, because I’ll be able to get a notary seal and witness documents.</p>
<p>Anyways, in college next year, I was thinking about getting a job as a legal assistant. The problem is that I’m going to Carolina, so my guess is that most of the legal assistant jobs go to the law students in Columbia.</p>
<p>Do you think its plausible that law offices will hire an 18 year old undergrad student who isn’t a law student, but who does have some experience? I also don’t really have any aspirations to be a lawyer. It just happens to be a business that I’m very familiar with.</p>
