MINNESOTA PARALEGAL ASSOCIATION 1711 W. County Road B #300N ♦ Roseville, MN 55113
The Minnesota Paralegal Association does not endorse or make referrals to any legal service providers. We strongly recommend that persons in need of legal services seek the advice of an attorney. At the present time, Minnesota has no minimum qualifications for persons calling themselves paralegals. The risk to the consumer of using such a person to provide legal services, without attorney oversight, is very high. The Minnesota State Bar Association offers attorney referrals as do both the Hennepinand Ramsey County Bar Associations.
