    Post: Is There Any Disciplinary Acts Against Paralegals?

    Posted by Sick of, SicOfSoKoldSystM@aol.com, on 7/14/03


    I know you can complain against lawyers and also judges.
    What about Paralegals?

    Can they sign an attorney's name on a Verification Notice?

    Can they make up a deed against your property for taking out
    a loan with them? While they take out money from other trust
    accounts?

    Realizing some paralegals work for multiple attorneys, can
    they instruct an attorney who is new on my case what to do?
    Especially after the fact of me telling my new attorney of
    the problems I have had with my previous attorney & this
    paralegal.

    Can a paralegal sign my name on the back of a check without
    being power of attorney and without my permission? Even if
    it was deposited in a joint acct. for my relatives estate?

    If a paralegal has been in some trouble before, where could
    I go to find out about their background?(like my state bar
    has a research on attorney profiles)

    When a petition is filed in court for permission of a sale
    of property in probate and it contains a list of creditors
    to be paid through escrow and this is prepared by the
    paralegal and is granted. Then this paralegal removes a
    property and substitutes it with their personal name, where
    can I take this info? The list of creditors was changed
    after getting the judges permission!

    I'm hoping paralegals don't have that same type of attorney
    ethics that I see in
