At Kitay Law Offices, we are proud to announce a significant milestone achieved by four of our exceptional team members. Rysha Rodriguez, Erika Villanueva, Stacey Shirk, and Clara Andrade have officially earned the prestigious Pennsylvania Certified Paralegal (Pa.C.P.) designation! This achievement reflects not only their dedication to the legal profession but also their commitment to excellence, a core value of our firm.
What the Pa.C.P. Credential Means
The Pennsylvania Certified Paralegal (Pa.C.P.) credential, regulated by the Keystone Alliance of Paralegal Associations [1], is a voluntary but highly regarded certification. It sets rigorous education and employment standards to ensure that paralegals working within the Commonwealth deliver exceptional professional and ethical legal support.
To qualify for this credential, paralegals [2] must meet strict educational and experiential requirements, including hands-on legal experience and a recommendation from an attorney. Additionally, maintaining this certification requires ongoing continuing education, ensuring that certified paralegals remain ahead of industry trends and developments.
For our clients, this means working with a team that not only meets but exceeds the highest standards of professionalism and competence in legal services.
Why This Matters
While becoming certified is not mandatory in Pennsylvania, pursuing credentials like the Pa.C.P. is a testament to the passion these individuals have for their work. Certification ensures that legal professionals meet the demands of an evolving legal landscape, equipping them with advanced skills and expertise to tackle challenges effectively.
At Kitay Law Offices, we firmly believe in investing in the professional advancement of our legal staff. Supporting our team’s growth translates directly to better service and outcomes for our clients. By earning the Pa.C.P. certification, Rysha, Erika, Stacey, and Clara have elevated not just their own careers but the quality of service we offer as a firm.
Our Commitment to Excellence
This accomplishment demonstrates the strength of our team culture at Kitay Law Offices. When one of us levels up, we all rise together. Our firm thrives on the collective success of our staff and their dedication to achieving new heights of professional excellence.
At Kitay Law Offices, our team’s dedication and achievements continue to shape the heart of our firm. Reflecting on this, Kenneth Kitay, Founder of Kitay Law Offices shared his thoughts:
“When I founded Kitay Law Offices 30 years ago, I never imagined how much the firm’s heart and spirit would come from individuals like Rysha, Erika, Stacey, Clara, and Yesenia (who has previously achieved her Pa.C.P. credentials). Their resilience, intelligence, and grace have set a new standard as they’ve earned their Pa.C.P. credentials—another testament to their unwavering dedication to our clients and this firm. Excellence with Heart defines them, and because of them, we all rise. With pride and gratitude, thank you.”
