Welcome to MALA — Where Montana's Paralegals Connect, Learn & Thrive

Are you a paralegal student just getting started?

Starting a new job or switching legal fields?
An attorney, educator, or legal professional who wants to be more involved?

You’ve come to the right place.

MALA is Montana’s only paralegal association affiliated with the National Association of Legal Assistants (NALA). We’re a nonprofit, member-driven organization offering CLEs, mentoring, job leads, networking, and professional development—all in a supportive and down-to-earth community.

We’re proud to be supported by Montana’s legal community, including law firms, freelance paralegals, court reporters, and others who help us thrive. Want to see who’s behind us? Visit our Sponsors tab to learn more about the partners who make our work possible. We also regularly collaborate with the Paralegal Section of the State Bar of Montana to advance the profession across the state.
