The income is good and relatively stable. The richest people in society are definitely not lawyers, but lawyers are usually richer. Top lawyers earn tens of millions a year, which exceeds the annual income of many listed companies. Moreover, listed companies may have losses and profits, and lawyers are unlikely to lose money. A good lawyer, a few horses, a few yachts and a private jet are not a problem. Lawyers have good cash flow. On the one hand, lawyers don't have to spend a little money to expand production like entrepreneurs. On the other hand, lawyers' risk awareness is too high, which also leads many lawyers to prefer money to investment. For example, our trip abroad can be summarized in three words: buy while buying. 3. Good social status Although there are many people who scold lawyers, although many lawyers have a hard life and lawyers are not welcomed by various government departments, people are likely to find lawyers several times in their lives, and this society is a money-oriented society, and their income level largely determines their social status. 4.

Because he is good at using legal weapons, he is likely to be bullied less. 5. Simple interpersonal relationships Generally speaking, lawyers may need to maintain a necessary social network outside the law firm. But within the law firm, interpersonal relationship is relatively simple, because everyone in the law firm has the opportunity to become a partner, unlike the pyramid structure of the company, you have to step on others to get promoted.
Disadvantages of being a lawyer:
1, not free (1) Unless you don't want to make money, basically you have more and more work and less free time. (2) As a service provider, it is essentially to earn money by selling time, and to respond to customers' needs almost at any time. The so-called freelancers are sometimes just free to choose the time and place to work overtime. 2. Hard work, hard work, lawyers should study for life. Of course, other industries have to learn, but the lawyer industry is particularly good. 3, pressure, whether litigation or non-litigation, pressure will be greater and greater. For non-litigation, the progress of the company's listing may depend on the speed at which you complete the documents; Litigants take people's money to help others eliminate disasters, and all kinds of disputes are piled on lawyers.
