Paralegal Gateway was the first website dedicated to the paralegal profession. In 2001 its founder, Jeannie S. Johnston, discovered that there were no web sites just for paralegals. She decided to remedy that situation and Paralegal Gateway was formed.
According to the site, ParalegalGateway.com has grown at a rate that certainly surprised its founder. ParalegalGateway.com has become a central source for Paralegals across the globe. Thanks to local associations and publications such as Legal Assistant Today Paralegals are, now more than ever, beginning to receive the recognition they deserve. One major goal of ParalegalGateway.com is to continue in that spirit, offering support, professional information and above all, recognition to Paralegals who are making a difference in both the legal profession and their communities.
Another goal is to promote law firms and companies who offer compensation and incentive programs specifically for their Paralegals. ParalegalGateway will regularly feature employers who have gone above and beyond the standard practices to include Paralegals as a vital part of their organizations.
Looking Ahead: The U.S. Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics has projected that the Paralegal profession will grow faster than the average for all occupations through 2012. As the Paralegal profession continues to grow, ParalegalGateway.com intends to grow right along side, providing free news, articles, links, career tools and much more to their Paralegal visitors. Making their Internet debut in 2001, their continued web presence proves Paralegals love ParalegalGateway.com. They have big plans for the future and welcome all partnership opportunities.

It's been really good since there has been a lot of resources for legal assistants made available online nowadays. Not a lot of schools or training centers are actually offering paralegal training or any other resource that they can use.
Great information, especially for newbies paralegals such as myself.
