Corey, I would go to a specialty school just to get a feel for it; and if it's something you're interested in... then continue your education.

You should get a degree from the best "brand name" that you can get accepted to. I don't know your area, but you can look at college ratings on lots of web sites. US News is one.
Law firms are education snobs. When they see someone with a degree from a major university that's willing to work as a paralegal, they jump. Plus, with a degree you'll have many more options and you might find that being a paralegal is the least attractive of them all.

Get a degree FIRST! By the way, Paralegals don't get paid crap! (especially compared to the lawyers they work for) I suggest you just get a degree and go to law school. You'll spend about the same amount of time in school.... Just go to an accreditted university!

you can never go wrong with a degree- you'll have more options than just a specialty school. UCLA is a good place to start!

Its better to have a degree. Enroll in a law school. California Law School.
