The traditional settings of law firms and other legal organizations.

There are increasingly new and changing roles and career opportunities for
paralegals and legal assistants in workplaces outside law firms and legal organizations. For example, the HR
department in corporations can offer new career options. These new opportunities can be advantageous, but
also present new ethical issues and potential risks.
Yeats wants you to research new career options and their related ethical issues and prepare a summary report
of your findings.
