First, I'm sure you can complete whatever you put your mind to. Sounds like you are wading through what you want.
Second, there are lots of areas you can go into as a paralegal. I am a trial attorney and have worked with paralegals my entire career. If you can hack it, go through the paralegal training. Both jobs (LA and Para) are not easy, but you will be able to make more as a para. And your job responsibilities will be different, in a good way.
And as far as an area, you are far braver than I to go into family law. After my experience with D, I know I could not do it. So, I will leave it alone. If you have any questions, fire away or find me in the alt.
