How do I get a job as a legal secretary?

Every job advertised wants experience? How do I get that experience? Is there a website or way that I can get an internship?

I started out as a temporary working for law firms. It was not glamorous. I would have to do the work that the higher level secretaries did not want to do, but I learned a lot. I began to have verifiable experience on my resume that I could later use to open doors for me. I am working as a Legal Assistant/Paralegal now and continuing my education.
