| Legal Document Assistants ("LDA") provide an affordable alternative to assist people with their self-help legal needs. A new California law known as SB1418 authorizes LDA's to prepare legal documents for people doing their own legal tasks. Legal Document Assistants were once commonly known as Independent Paralegals. However, as of January 1, 2000, only those Paralegals working directly for attorneys may now be referred to as Paralegal. Those formerly known as Independent Paralegals are now officially known as Legal Document Assistants. Legal Document Assistants are required by law to be registered and bonded in the county in which they have their principal place of business. Where to Go & What to Do provides Legal Document Assistance for Family and Elder Law. Please note that we are not attorneys. We can only provide self help services at your specific instruction. For legal advice contact your attorney. |
