[Evergreen, 12/21/2017] - The Center For Legal Studies, a Colorado-based company that provides online and university-based legal courses, has partnered with some of the country’s most esteemed institutions for higher education. Thanks to its wide network, professionals around the country who wish to explore the field of legal consultancy or start a full-fledged law career can get the education they need.

The Demand for Non-Lawyer Legal Services

The exorbitant cost of hiring a lawyer to represent individuals in legal battles or to settle disputes is driving people to look for cheaper alternatives. This resulted in the birth of the alternative legal service provider (ALSP) profession. This is a niche industry that provides legal services at more affordable rates.

These services include contract management, litigation support, legal document review, intellectual property management, investigation, and legal research.

A law degree is not a requirement to become an ALSP. In fact, paralegals and professional legal consultants are perfectly capable of performing these services.

By partnering with schools all over the country, The Center For Legal Studies addresses the growing demand for ALSPs and helps aspiring paralegals get the education they need to become full-fledged legal professionals.

A Nationwide Network

The American Bar Association, the governing body that provides accreditation to law schools, lists 205 approved institutions. The Center For Legal Studies is currently partnered with over a hundred schools on the list.

This network enables the company to offer its courses to people anywhere in the country. Some of its courses offer live lectures, which immerses students in a classroom set-up and university atmosphere.

The company also offers online courses and DVD learning materials, making legal education flexible and more convenient for students.

“The Center for Legal Studies is a legal education company focused on providing students the most affordable and effective legal education possible,” it says on its website. The company also aims to “provide students with the flexibility necessary to achieve their academic goals while continuing with their everyday lives.”
