What does it mean to be a lawyer? Let's discuss the next questions: "What must you do to become a lawyer in your country? What does a lawyer usually do in your country? What makes a good lawyer? Are they paid good money? Would you like to be one? Why (not)?" I will try to answer these questions. To become a lawyer you need to graduate a Law University. You should learn many laws. In my country lawyers consult people about law questions. They help people to write juristic documents. So lawyers defense people in court. A good lawyer knows the best way in the current court case. He may get the best result for his clients. Not all lawyers that are paid good money are good lawyers. Some of them find a way to get much money without useful work for people. I never wanted to be a lawyer, because it's just not mine. I don't like to read laws, but I find it useful to know the laws in your country.
