I was a Family Law Paralegal for 12 years in California and in 2019 I moved to Texas and haven’t been able to land a paralegal job. Does anyone have any tips on how I could land a paralegal position in Texas?

Have you considered Insurance defense or personal injury? Or possibly probate because that goes along with family law. Also, many companies online are hiring remote paralegals. You might even be able to do family law online for a California attorney.

Need advice!

I am over qualified for my role now and already meet the exp of the new role above me. Very salty and feel like they are setting me up to feel stuck before I even start. What do I did?
