Choosing Law as a Career

In any society, a certain set of rules has to exist for citizens to abide by. Laws are made by experienced jurists to ensure peace and harmony in the society. In the absence of these laws, people are bound to live according to their own whims and fancies, thereby causing societal rifts and gross injustice meted out to the powerless and voiceless. Therefore, the law is a set of rules through which any society operates. Laws are important for maintaining a disciplined society.  Every citizen must obey and follow these set of rules that are legally enforceable.

Why we need a lawyer?

A lawyer is a licensed professional who advises and represents others in legal matters or a person who practices law. A lawyer is also known as an attorney, barrister, litigator and solicitor. Lawyers are both advocates and advisors. They help their clients to solve the legal problems. We need lawyers in our everyday lives in countless ways. For example we need a lawyer for buying or selling a property, for counseling, for knowing legal rights, for defending a criminal charge, for making or changing a will, etc. A lawyer ensures that the rights of the client are protected and attempts to articulate the problems of the client, in the Court of Law in the best possible manner.
