LESA is pleased to announce a collaboration with the Alberta Association of Professional Paralegals. For members of the AAPP, we are pleased to offer 10% off select LESA programs. Scroll below to learn more about the AAPP and the benefits of membership.

The Alberta Association of Legal Assistants was originally formed in 1981 to provide recognition for legal assistants who wanted to be accredited for the independent work they performed. Senior legal assistants, with their vast knowledge and experience, filled an important support role of performing legal services as paralegals.

  • Providing networking resources for paralegals throughout the province
  • Annual salary survey, with results being shared with members
  • Annual performance excellence awards
  • Hosting professional development courses
  • Promoting other professional development opportunities
  • Providing annual bursaries to eligible students in recognized programs
