There are presently no licensing requirements to work as a paralegal in New York State. As a member of the Empire State Alliance of Paralegal Associations (ESAPA), the Western New York Paralegal Association, Inc. (WNYPA) subscribes to the educational standards set forth in the ESAPA Position Statement on Paralegal Education in New York State. You can review these paralegal education standards on the ESAPA web site by using the convenient ESAPA link on our home page.
