Why This Book Is Different
There are plenty of books on becoming a better paralegal. This isn’t one of them.
Paralegals Should Be Millionaires isn’t about climbing the firm ladder. It’s about building your own. With her signature blend of honesty, storytelling, and step-by-step strategies, Jaclyn Foster speaks directly to the heart of paralegals who know they’re meant for more—but aren’t sure how to get there.
Foster built her own paralegal agency from scratch and scaled it to multiple six figures before selling it to a national brand. Now she teaches paralegals across the country how to do the same—whether that’s through freelancing, course creation, strategic consulting, or building a personal brand within the legal space.
Her story isn’t about overnight success—it’s about relentless commitment, business smarts, and unshakable belief that paralegals deserve a seat at the table… and a seven-figure bank account to match.
