Which of the following is true of paralegals?

  1. They may practice law

  2. They may not practice law

  3. They only do secretarial work

  4. They are granted a license to work by the state

The correct answer is: They may not practice law

Paralegals are not licensed or authorized to practice law. They are trained legal professionals who assist attorneys in various tasks, but they may not give legal advice or represent clients in court. Option A is incorrect because it suggests that paralegals can practice law, which is not true. Option C is incorrect because paralegals may perform a wide range of tasks, including legal research and drafting legal documents, and are not limited to secretarial work. Option D is also incorrect because paralegals do not hold a separate license to work, but they may be required to meet certain qualifications or become certified in some jurisdictions.
