Lawyers are people that argue on your behalf on the court of law. Lawyers must provide evidence to prove their client is telling the truth. Lawyers must get witnesses and question the witnesses about their client to get information about what they did, what the client did, and what did the person did to cause the problem. Lawyers should come up with strong strategies and arguments to show the court that their client is innocent or to prove that they have evidence about the speaker being guilty. Lawyers also use methods to help the case and they also ask their co-workers about methods they could use for the case.But lawyers mostly need to know how to communicate with other people like their co-workers and clients so co-workers and clients know that they can trust this lawyer and tell them everything they need to know about the case.

By decorate I mean completely go all out for every single holiday… Holidays I didn’t even know existed. She would put multiple mini statues of Easter bunnies, several lighted up Easter eggs, and my personal favorite the huge Easter bunny costume she stuffed with plastic bags and made it stand up like a scarecrow.…

If a citizen feels that the law that Congress passes violates their rights, then he or she will be able to challenge the law if the Court decides to hear the case.

Both of these careers are long roads that end up at the top making buckets of money and strive to help people, yet there wouldn’t be a lawyer operating on a patient in a hospital.
