In Reply To: You should have no difficulty finding an entry level paralegal position in any of the toptier firms in NYC. I graduated from an ivy league school with a science degree and received offers from such firms. You are certainly more qualified than I was considering I had no legal experience whatsoever. Your foreign legal training will probably be a tremendous help. But make sure you don't stay a paralegal for too long because I've seen several others do so and regret it later. It's miserable work and you should only use it as a quick transition to being an attorney.
