I went out freelance and only one attorney keeps me very busy. Many want inhouse, in office paralegals. I work only remote. It's hard starting out, very hard unless word of mouth spreads like wildfire for you about your work ethics, billing, and your work drafting and filing in general. If you choose to do this, have a solid plan with back up. Many paralegals are branching out on their own due to their own personal reasons or just tired of the office monotny. Just remember, you will always have to work under the supervision of an attorney. If we ever forget that we end up in deep do do.
Beware the competition is out there, I don't mean just other paralegals. There are businesses literally from other countries vying for our jobs. So, to know more than the competition, keep learning all the time, join a paralegal group, join a professional women's business group so that you will have a network of paralegals to help you.
Do not sell yourself short in cash flow, what is your knowledge - charge for it.
If an attorney is criticizing you (venting from your work product) listen closely, don't interrupt and grab what they are saying and then take that criticism and build a better work product.
Never ever never correct an attorney unless they give an open door meaning, asking you.
Budget well, save well. There may be very slows times or hard times. But be prepared financially, and emotionally (and prayerfully wouldn't hurt either).
Once you grow a little bit, get a separate phone line from your personal line. Don't mix the two. Keep your private life private.
And last, it's a lot of trial and error. You will grow from learning.

I may be laughed at as I see but, I speak only on my experiences.
