In addition to the statewide organization, paralegals in Bowling Green and the surrounding area now have an organization (the Southern Kentucky Association of Paralegals) which was recently formed to provide paralegals with assistance and support on a local level. The group’s next meeting is set for Tuesday, November 5, with social hour starting at 5:30 and business meeting to follow. Regular meetings will be held on the first Tuesday of each month at The Bistro, 1129 College Street.
