7. Laywei's work
Lawyers work to assure the principle of equal justice under law to the people of the suite.
A lawyer is both an advisor and an advocate. As an advisor, a lawyer informs clients about legal manors or represents persons, businesses, and the government in such matters as contracts and commercial transactions.
As an advocate, a lawyer acts for the client in court. A lawyer also advocates on behalf of clients in resolving disputes out of court.
Lawyers' work can include defending or prosecuting those accused of committing a crime.
Lawyers research legal issues, draft contracts, wills and other documents, counsel, mediate, and negotiate settlements.
Some lawyers specialize in advising corporations working as in-house counsel. They also act for the company in court if a dispute arises.
Most lawyers practice in law firms that can be small or big, but usually have different areas to counsel clients on.
Usually, lawyers concentrate on a certain practice area: taxation or intellectual properlv, some practice public interest law, for example working to protect the environment.
Some lawyers may be appointed or elected to serve as judges. Judges preside in the courtroom. They resolve disputes and give the judgments. In a jury trial they rule on points of law and tell the jury about the law that governs the case.
Lawyers also work for various government agencies and organizations. Legal careers also include teaching law and research.
There arc law-related jobs lor which law degree qualification is not required. These arc clerks, court reporters and secretaries.
Careers in Law Enforcement, in the USA for example, such as Private and Criminal detectives, FBI agents, Police officers, Customs officers are possible after obtaining a Criminal Justice degree.
8. Кntering the profession How does someone become a lawyer?
In Some countries in order to practice as a lawyer it is necessary to get a university degree in law. However, in others, a degree may be insufficient; professional examinations must be passed. In Britain, it is not in fact necessary to have a degree, although nowadays most people entering the profession do. The main requirement is to pass the Bar Final examination (for barristers) or the Law Society Final examination (for solicitors). Someone with university degree in a subject other than law needs first to take a preparatory course. Someone without a degree at all may also prepare for the final examination, but this will take several years. In most countries, lawyers will tell you that the time they spent studying for their law finals was one of the worst periods of their life! This is because an enormous number of procedural rules covering a wide area of law must be memorized. In Japan, where there are relatively few lawyers, the examinations arc supposed to be particularly hard: less than 5 percent of candidates pass. F.ven after passing the examination, though, a lawyer is not necessarily qualified. A solicitor in England, for example, must then spend two years as an articled clerk, during this time his work is closely supervised by an experienced lawyer, and he must take further courses. A banister must spend a similar year as л pupil.
The rate at which the legal profession grows is terrific. In the 21st century the number of lawyers will probably outpace the rate of population growth.
Why is the career in law so popular? In the USA the average salary of experienced lawyers in private practice is more than $100,000.
Lawyers' salaries are substantially greater than those of many other professionals. The glamour of legal practice strengthens the attraction of its financial rewards.
