AB 1646 California Assembly · 2015-2016 Regular Session

Legal assistants: continuing education.

Summary
Existing law defines and regulates the activities of legal document assistants and unlawful detainer assistants, as those terms are defined. Existing law requires a legal document assistant or unlawful detainer assistant to be registered in the county in which his or her principal place of business is located and in which he or she maintains a branch office. Existing law requires that a certificate of registration expire after 2 years, as specified. Existing law requires a registrant, whether a legal document assistant or an unlawful detainer assistant, to complete 15 hours of continuing legal education courses, as specified, as a condition of registration renewal. This bill would delete this continuing legal education requirement for an unlawful detainer assistant.
