Welcome.

Hi ! I can see that you chose to become a paralegal. This career will do a lot for you and there is a lot of opening in this field. You will have some choices to do during this adventure we call "life". This is a law career so as you can imagine, education can be pretty important for that now will that be the choice you make or not?

Choice 1 : Go to Ahuntsic College in the paralegal technique.

Choice 2 : No Cegep, I'm intelligent enough for this job.

Go to Ahuntsic College in Paralegal Technology.

I see you went for Ahuntsic College. It's a very good school and the technique is very appreciated by the student. A few things you should know before starting your classes. The classes in the technique are quite full of material, also just know that by the amount of paper you will use there is a chance you might kill one or two forest per session, which is a good thing to know if you love trees. Also, the way you are going to work will matter, so I think you should choose what your work ethic will be.

Choice 1 : Work hard.

Choice 2 : Skip class and chill.

No Cegep, I'm intelligent enough for this job.

I love your confidence, but I'm sorry. In this field education is very important and not just this field, school will help you get any job you want. Besides, I know for a fact that if you would have sent you CV to a law office they would have put it away as soon as they saw "no cegep". But, I still love the confidence. You do you girl!

Choice 1 : Welcome.

Work hard.

Well, well we have a hard worker among us ! This is good. If you assimilate yourself with this kind of work ethic early on, it will be useful for you in the future. Also, your grades looks amazing, only straight A's! So now that graduation is around the corner and that you had all those amazing classes, the most important choice of all have to be made. Which field of law are you going to work in? It all depends on what you want and love, because working in a field you hate is not a good option. Anyway, I can see that you love criminal law and business law. Which one will it be?

Choice 1 : Criminal Law.

Choice 2 : Corporate Law.

Skip class and chill.

I honestly can't say anything because I also did that, but it's not the best way to work. But, you are an intelligent being and you seem to be passing your classes, but remember that passing a class is not the same as acing it. You shouldn't put aside your work if you want to pull off a class. And it can lead to cursory work and being meticulous is part of being a paralegal. Anyway, now that graduation is around the corner, you need to make to most important choice in your future career and that is the field you want to go in, you seem to love the criminal law and the business law, so which one will it be? Remember, you will work in that field for the rest of your career, so the choice is very important.

Choice 1 : Criminal Law.

Choice 2 : Corporate Law.

Criminal Law.

I like this field, because you can learn so much, and in a weird way it's the most fun. Let me explain, it's more fun because the cases that will get are more likely to be different every time, so it makes the job more interesting. Also, as a paralegal your job is to do research and find every information you can on the matter, and in criminal law most of the information you need is not inside the law itself, but inside the jurisprudence (the decision the judge makes in trials), so you have to play detective a little bit to find exactly what you need. This was a little law fact for you, now for your internship, what are you going to do? You need to know if you want to work for the government or if you want to work in defense?

Choice 1 : Criminal Law firm.

Choice 2 : The government.

Corporate Law.

This is a good choice, because corporate law is kind of simple in a way. Yes, there is a ridiculous numbers of laws, doctrines (books written by the lawyers, judges, etc. on a specific filed of law) and jurisprudence (decisions made by judges at trial) on the subject, but it's easy to understand so it's not that bad. And on the bright side, working in corporate law is very well-paid, but (there is always a "but" in these situations) the first to years of working (internship also) are hell, let just say that doing a 48 hours of work in a row is a common possibility but you still get paid so it's a win-win situation. Now that you know what's going to happen and that you are done with school, you can start your internship.

Choice 1 : Big corporate firm.

Criminal Law firm.

You are now starting the internship of your dream, you are working for a big defense firm who is renowned in Montreal. If you do a good job on your internship, you are sure to have a career for a long time. But, being an intern can be hard, even if you are fresh out of school school this could be overwhelming for you, but you can do it ! You are assigned on your first case, you have to do the research on an important case, but the client is your bully from school and your research could be detrimental to her case, what will you do?

Choice 1 : Do the job well.

Choice 2 : Not giving a 100%.

The government.

You now start your internship, or on-the-job-training, that will prepare you for your future career as a paralegal. It will be an opportunity to put a foot in the door and learn the ropes of your future job. But be prepared to be an intern can be tough this is a whole new world and who knows what might happen. And now comes your first assignment it's a case about a man who's accused of sexually assaulting his secretary, but the man in the case his your father. What will you do?

Choice 1 : Tell your boss about it.

Choice 2 : Keep the information for yourself.

Big corporate firm.

You are now starting your internship, you are well-paid, but the hours are out of this world. You get a notice from your boss that a new case is coming and it is big. The client in the case is accused of fraud on his clients by selling them furniture who were made with damaged product (at a lesser price), but the man in question is your new step-father (which you hate by the way). In the past, you accused him of breaking the marriage of my parents and you blame him for your father's suicide. What will you do?

You were strong and everything worked out for the better.

Follow her.

You are tired of this and decides to follow her. She seems to be going to the evidence room, why would she go there? You follow her and watch quietly, she doesn't seem to know you are there.
