Statewide Forum

The Forum is a day of seminars, vendors and is a great chance to networking with all Ohio Paralegals. It is an opportunity to learn about upcoming issues, current trends, and expand your legal topical knowledge.

Ohio Paralegal Day

The third Monday in May is designated as Paralegal Day in Ohio. The Governor of Ohio issues a Proclamation to each Association proclaiming this day "Paralegal Day in Ohio" and each Association asks the Mayor of their City to issue a similar Proclamation. The date was chosen to mark the date the first paralegal association, the Paralegal Association of Central Ohio (PACO), was incorporated in Ohio.

Statewide Representatives

Each Association elects or appoints a Statewide Representative to attend and voice the opinions of the Association's membership. The CPA's statewide representative can be reached at statewide@cincinnatiparalegals.org.
