Question by rereloveforever: Does anyone knows about the life of a lawyer? What is one day like being in a lawyer’s shoe?
Well right now I am thinking about being a lawyer. The problem is that I don’t know any lawyers or anyone who knows a lawyer. I would really like to know about the occupation and was hoping you would help me. Please include as much as you know like salary, daily routine and other things. Hope your explanation would really help me to make up my mind THANKS!

Lawyers LIE a lot, and defend people they KNOW are guilty.
If you are OK with that, then go for it. They make a lot of $$ in private practice, but if they work for the gov’t (aka the good guys) they make about the same as a teacher does.
If you can sleep at night getting a killer to go free, there’s a LOT of money in it.

Answer by cvq3842
My guess? From a quarter million to a million or more. Could be several million for the top attorneys.

I doubt they would make too much less.

PS Here is an article I just found – it’s not recent, but it gives some background:

You could possibly look into being a trial lawyer, where you would debate in the courtroom as your main job as opposed to reading briefs and doing background research.

Answer by Meredith
You bet!
Send a letter to local law firms stating that you are interested in an internship. The details of timing will have to be worked out (do you have another job, what are your school hours, etc.) but it’s completely possible that you can get some intern hours in – and it may turn into a paid position at some point (like while you’re in law school).
