What Defines Me - The Things I'm Passionate About:
I am currently a contributor for a National Magazine that is launching in April. My passion is my profession as a paralegal and helping people help themselves. Over the years I have founded my company LegalOne with the mind-set that everyone needs a great paralegal (whether the public or attorneys) and have set out to change the face of legal services as we all know it. Also, because I have been through a lot in my life, homeless at age 17, first in my family to graduate college, entrepreneur, wife, mother; I know that we are all the makers of our own destiny! I am setting out to hopefully be that role model for teenagers, adults and married women- that if you set your mind to something you CAN accomplish it!
Anything & Everthing Else:
Since 1995, LegalOne’s founder, Dedra Curtis has had the privilege of assisting the public in the areas of estate planning, probate, real estate and corporations, just to name a few. Over the years, she has seen clients over-whelmed; wondering “what do I do”; simply needing someone to call to take care of their needs. We understand that clients want to be communicated with, knowing their matter is being handled in the most cost effective, efficient, and competent manner. Over the last two years, it has been our mission to create a company (LegalOne) that will truly help the public and attorneys, by offering paralegal services at a fraction of the cost. If there is a matter that we as paralegals cannot handle, our referral Attorney’s will be able to assist the client further. We handhold our clients every step of the way.... No matter what their need is; they know that we are their one resource.... for all their needs.

DEDRA L. CURTIS, BA, BS – FOUNDER / PRESIDENT / CEO

Further, she has been a member of the Central Florida Paralegal Association since 1993; and Orange County Bar Association since 1997; and is currently filing for her minority woman owned business certification.

Since 1995, Ms. Curtis has extensive executive level experience in legal, business consulting, marketing/advertising and project management. Her motto is: “Everyone needs a great Paralegal.” Over the years, she has taken her expertise and education, to set the standard in the Paralegal profession and developed the concept of LegalOne. An entrepreneur at heart, Ms. Curtis thrives on building businesses.

As Executive Director of the Professional Resource Center (PRC), in Orlando, Florida, she took this company and built it from the ground-up.

Due to her diverse experience and results, corporate executives have sought out Ms. Curtis to help them build their own businesses.
