Certified Paralegal Launches Virtual Paralegal Company National Association of Legal Assistants Certified Paralegal launches Digital Paralegal Services, LLC in Oklahoma to provide virtual support for attorneys throughout the United States.
BigNews.Biz - Sep 01,2009 - Oklahoma City, OK (September, 2009) Cathy L. Ribble is the visionary behind Digital Paralegal Services, LLC. She earned her Certified Legal Assistant (CLA) title from the National Association of Legal Assistants early in her career. In 2009, she re-established that professional certification by earning her Certified Paralegal (CP) title. After working as a legal professional in the traditional law firm for over 15 years, Cathy understood that the current economic climate is creating a new need and opportunity for paralegals. Attorneys need to cut costs for themselves and their clients. Part of that equation is partnering with qualified paralegals and support personnel who can provide professional services at reasonable rates. Digital Paralegal Services, LLC was formed to meet that need by offering virtual paralegal services, legal secretarial services, and total attorney support.
Ribble is among 653 paralegals in the State of Oklahoma and 15,378 paralegals nationwide who have attained this goal. Established in 1976, the CLA/CP examination program is a voluntary professional credentialing program developed by the National Association of Legal Assistants and administered by a board composed of paralegals, members of the American Bar Association and members of the field of education active in paralegal training. The CLA/CP program involves successful completion of a two-day comprehensive examination covering the topics of communications, legal research, ethics, human relations and interviewing techniques, legal terminology, judgment and analytical ability and substantive law. Thereafter, evidence of continuing legal education must be submitted periodically in order to maintain certified status.
Cathy frequently posts and retweets paralegal information on Twitter under the user name @Cathy Ribble.

She has also been featured by ParalegalGateway.com in its Toolbar for Paralegals under Paralegal Tweeps and Paralegal Blogs.
