Seems like it'd be a pretty bad idea on the paralegal's part to take the gig.

Why is that?
It is illegal in every US jurisdiction I’m aware of for a paralegal to give legal advice.

Attorneys have a legally enforced monopoly on legal advice because, well, they write the laws.

And even if you found a paralegal willing to break the law, you'd either get an idiot who can't get a job anywhere or have to pay a lot more than $5
