Join LAPA this year in supporting Public Counsel's Run for Justice 5k!
Please join LAPA and its supporters at Public Counsel’s “Run for Justice”! This family friendly event will raise funds for Public Counsel, the nation's largest public interest law firm specializing in delivering pro bono legal services to low-income communities.
The Los Angeles Paralegal Association ("LAPA") is dedicated to developing, strengthening, and advancing the paralegal profession. LAPA was formed in 1972 by local paralegals in response to the growing need for an organized professional association throughout the Greater Los Angeles Metropolitan Area. LAPA was incorporated in 1977 as a California non-profit corporation and is governed by an Executive Committee and a Board of Directors.
LAPA provides networking opportunities, continuing legal educational programs, and pro bono activities for paralegals and other members of the legal community. LAPA builds communication bridges with other paralegal associations and maintains a mutually beneficial working relationship with local and state bar associations, educational institutions and businesses serving the legal community.
