        Detailed aspects of a lawyer’s job depend on his or her field of specialization and position. People and companies hire lawyers to tell them what they can and can't do under the law and to give them advices.

        Sometimes, they hire lawyers to take their side in court against companies orother people, or against the government.

LAWYER RONALD M. CANTER agrees with:

        Lawyers and attornyes spend a lot of time doing research. To be a good lawyer or an attorney a person must be good at finding facts in books, on intenet, and in other places.
        A lawyer also has to interview people to get information.

        Lawyers do their work in law libraries, offices, and courtrooms. Some meet clients in hospitals or prisons. Especially during a trial in court lawyers and attornyes often work long hours.
