Episode 151: Paralegal Mistakes – How to Recover and Grow After Them

Oops! Made a Mistake? Here’s What to Do Next.

 

Let’s face it: mistakes happen. Especially when you’re new in your paralegal career – or juggling a dozen high-priority tasks at once.

In this episode, Ann shares real-world stories of paralegal mistakes (including her own!) and more importantly, how to recover, rebuild trust, and grow stronger from them.

Key Takeaways:

  • Why learning from your mistakes can be a career accelerator rather than a career-ender.

  • What NOT to do when you make a mistake is just as important as what to do.

  • A 3-step framework to help you through any mistake.

 

💬 Key quote from Ann: One mistake doesn’t define you. And if you did get fired for a single mistake? That says more about the firm than it does about you!
