What is the new California Law on paralegals?
The State of California has adopted legislation—Business and Professions Code section 6450 et seq.—that defines the titles paralegal and legal assistant, and sets educational criteria and continuing education requirements. Cal State East Bay’s Paralegal Studies certificate program meets the education requirements of the California law because we are an accredited institution and the program consists of more than 24 semester units of paralegal course work. Cal State East Bay offers continuing legal education to meet the continuing education requirements established by the new law.
