ABOUT THE ARIZONA PARALEGAL ASSOCIATION

|
THE APA STORY - The Arizona Paralegal Association ("APA") was formed in 1977 and is a nonprofit professional corporation for legal assistants. The APA became an affiliate association of the National Association of Legal Assistants, Inc. in 1988. Our membership is currently near 400. The members are legal assistants employed by Phoenix area law firms, freelance legal assistants, paralegals employed in corporations or government agencies, students enrolled in paralegal training programs and other persons interested in supporting the APA and paralegal profession.
The APA was organized to elevate and maintain high professional standards and ethics of the legal profession; provide and promote continuing legal education to legal assistants; maintain open communcations and working relationships between APA and its members and representatives of local and state bar associations; and further the interests of legal assistants by gathering, receiving, studying and disseminating information concerning legal assistants.
