Career Options: Legal Studies
A surplus of employment fields awaits those who have graduated with a degree in Legal Studies. For those with an Associates Degree in paralegal or general studies career options include working as a paralegal or law assistant to a single lawyer, corporation or law firm. The outlook is especially good in this area as firms downsize and paralegals perform essential tasks previously assigned to lawyers. Those with a master's or bachelor's Degree in law are able to pursue careers as lawyers, judges, or business and finance law experts.
