Why I Chose This Career: I chose this career because you get to search the intent of laws and judicial decisions. Another reason why I chose this job is because you get to help others not only in court rooms but in many other cases such as bankruptcy, enviormental law, and etc. In being a lawyer i would rather be a lawyer who deals with child custody. I would rather work by myself or create a business for others to join and help me keep kids safe. A lawyer makes between 75,000 to 163,00 dollars. And last but not least I would rather work for the government.

Skills Requiered: Being a lawyer demands strong skills such as: oratory methods, critical analysis, and observation. On top of that a lawyer should have knowledge of state and federal law in order to argue his/her cases. Any lawyer who lacks passion for justice is to be put in jail.
