Episode Summary:

In this episode, Ann addresses a compelling question from Habiba, a Pakistan-based paralegal looking to transition to working for the U.S. legal market remotely. Ann explores the challenges foreign-trained legal professionals face when seeking remote paralegal roles in the United States. This candid discussion touches on the nuances of U.S. legal requirements and the limitations faced by professionals without U.S. based education.
