1, high pressure. Being a lawyer is more stressful than doing other jobs, because the client entrusts things that he can't handle to the lawyer, so the professional requirements in psychological quality, processing ability, coordination ability and communication ability are higher than those of the client, which leads to great pressure. An ordinary economic dispute may involve the life and death of an enterprise, a criminal case may involve the life and death of a person, and mistakes in a major non-litigation project may lead to huge claims.
2. Fast pace. Customers are anxious when they give you something to do, including litigation and non-litigation business. The lawyer's work rhythm must meet the needs of the client, and at the same time, the quality of the case must be guaranteed to satisfy the client. This is a stressful fast pace.
3, a wide range of knowledge, knowledge update quickly. Even professional lawyers face different types of legal problems every day. Today you face the construction industry, and tomorrow you may face the IT industry. If you don't know the customer industry at all, you can't undertake business. You must know the industry in the shortest time, at least superficially, before you can undertake business. At the same time, the country's legal process is very fast, and new laws, regulations and policies are constantly being introduced, which requires you to keep learning.
4. Strong independence, especially in litigation business. When undertaking litigation, lawyers often rely mainly on their own legal knowledge, litigation skills and experience, and do not need too much intervention from other lawyers, which leads to the independence of lawyers being more prominent than other industries. Such practical characteristics are likely to lead to organized and undisciplined work habits. Although many lawyers practice in the name of law firms, they are actually not particularly close to law firms, which is very dangerous.
