What determines whether a paralegal is competent?

What will be an ideal response?


Nothing specifically. Although it is insufficient to say that competence is in the eyes of the beholder, competence is not easily definable because paralegals/legal assistants are not licensed. However, many of the same factors that determine the lawyer’s competence— diligence and preparedness—are relevant to the paralegal. There are also some tangible building blocks to competence, including an accredited legal education and proper training.

Going to the DogsDemand for pet services is greatly increasing across the United States. In fact, Americans will spend nearly $44 billion dollars on their pets this year. Many American dog owners are seeking out "doggy daycares" that are more like a resort or spa than an ordinary kennel for their canine companion. Daycare services for dogs now include toy rooms, outside play areas, doggie massages, treadmills, swimming pools and cushy beds for nap time. Pet owners can watch their pets via a Web cam and some doggy daycares have a phone where owners can talk to their dog when they feel their pet needs to hear their voice. Rates vary from $20 to $45 a day per pet, depending on the amenities that the pet owner chooses.Refer to Going to the Dogs.
