In addition to posting paralegal profiles, I am going to start sharing profiles for other kinds of legal professionals, especially those that frequently work with paralegals. Abbie is one of a great group of legal nurse consultants using Twitter. Not only are they an excellent source of medico-legal news, but they can also be helpful with nationwide referrals, as I found out this week when I used Twitter to help an attorney locate a nurse case manager in the Washington D.C. area.
