Technology Is Reinforcing and Expanding the Role and Professional Nature of the Paralegal Profession 

"Paralegals are becoming more accessible to attorneys as the cost of new hardware decreases," says Gary Melhuish, former president of The International Paralegal Managers Association. With new software constantly being created and its use updated in almost every area of law, paralegals are able to perform their tasks with increased speed and accuracy.
 
Law libraries in law firms are literally discarding their books in favor of online services for legal research. Paralegals who keep current with technology become invaluable to the firm, especially because they tend to stay with the firm, while associates and attorneys tend to rise up through the ranks or change firms. They become the institutional memory of the firm.
