A Paralegal or Legal Document Assistant cannot appear for another person in Court or negotiate on another parties’ behalf. A Paralegal or Legal Document Assistant may prepare legal documents and perform other services such as filing the pleadings with the Court, calendaring and generally administering the case to insure compliance with deadlines and procedures set under the Rules of Court.
