"The Portable Paralegal: Finding, switching or creating your own job”
RSVP date:April 16, 2010
Effective November 20, 2008, the Baltimore City Paralegal Association (“BCPA”) merged into the Maryland Association of Paralegals (”MAP”). Welcome BCPA members!

MAP and the Bar
MAP was invited to exhibit at the Montgomery County Bar Association’s Annual Meeting and Law Day Celebration. MAP volunteers, Sydney Greenish and Don Street, represented MAP and were pleased at the response by members of the bar. We even received at least 2 new members from the experience. Thank you, Sydney and Don!
MAP also attended the MSBA Solo and Small Firm Conference in November. MAP volunteers, Janice Ferragamo and Traci Radice, represented MAP and were ecstatic at the response they received from solos and small firms. This is one conference that MAP will try never to miss, as solos and small firms that are just building know they can be successful and profitable by hiring paralegals. If they don’t, MAP representatives are there to show them how!
