History
The history of Legal Assistants Day is tied to the very origins of legal assistants. Lawyers used to be more government-appointed and did not assist individuals in need. That all changed in 1965 when the Legal Services Bureau opened, serving as the basis for the creation of many independent legal-focused companies willing to help people solve their problems and provide consulting assistance.
Legal assistance became in high demand in the 1980s when society was transitioning to its modern form. People needed legal help. The celebration of Legal Assistants Day also aims to help law graduates with their future employment.
