Paralegals, Law Students, and Legal Secretaries

It would be remiss not to acknowledge the many paralegals, law students, and legal secretaries with whom attorneys serve. Though we take the bows, the support of these capable and devoted individuals is essential to our success.

Who else types and catalogues (not to mention copies) thousands of pages a year for us? Who else manages to find not only the documents we misplaced, but the most obscure of cases on point for our cause?

Who rushes to Court to bring us new information in the midst of a trial? Who stays late evenings at our side, types multiple revisions, comes in on snow days, collates motion papers on the floor…and puts up with us, in general?

All this is done with very little expectation of public recognition or reward. What better picture can there be of God’s own faithfulness?

“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning” (James 1: 17).

Father, we thank You for all You have given us, and for Your great faithfulness.

We see that faithfulness in the paralegals, law students, and legal secretaries it is our privilege to know. These dedicated professionals have caught our mistakes, tolerated our shortcomings, and given unstintingly of themselves. Without them, we could not accomplish the work You have assigned us.

We thank you, also, for the gift of Your Son, Jesus. May His light shine to all the world.

Amen
