What are the prospects for a career as a lawyer

Lawyers are not as difficult to enter as civil servants, and is the counterpart of the field of law, is the main choice of many graduates. Lawyer's income composition can be divided into two kinds of calculation, one is to get a salary type, the firm pays wages, lawyers are responsible for lawsuits; another is the lawyer does not get a salary, relying on lawyers to find customers based on business commission. At present, China's qualifications for lawyers to take is a strict admission system, must pass the national judicial examination. Employment prospects and personal ability also has a relationship, varying from person to person.

First of all, lawyers earn relatively high incomes. Litigation lawyers, for example, each lawyer can undertake roughly 15 cases a year, according to the current lower fees, charging 3,000 yuan per case, the lawyer's annual income of about 50,000 yuan, after deducting the firm's expenses, in general, a lawyer's net income of about 30,000 yuan a year. If we look at this figure alone, the absolute income of lawyers is not high, but from the point of view of the income from work per unit of time, the income of lawyers is relatively high. Taking litigation cases as an example, the total time spent by a lawyer on the filing and hearing of a case is no more than 40 hours, and the total time spent on the work of 15 cases in a year is roughly 80 working days, which means that a lawyer can use the workload of a 4-month case to ensure his or her survival for a 12-month period. This is based on the lower level of fees, for some experienced lawyers, some cases to reach 20,000 yuan or even more than 200,000 yuan, at this time the level of income is very substantial. Therefore, the income level of the lawyer's profession is relatively high compared with other professions.

Lawyer's work is knowledge and wisdom work. At present, people choose a career, not only hope to get a higher income, and hope that in the work of learning more practical knowledge; the most ideal career is not only can make people learn knowledge, and can be different knowledge for combination of use, this is a wisdom of the profession. The lawyer profession first knowledge profession, through the lawyer exam to be familiar with more than 1.3 million words of law, each undertaking a specific case to learn the relevant laws, regulations and policies are countless, read the law so that lawyers can master a lot of knowledge. Lawyer profession or a wisdom profession, each case of law selection method, evidence selection method are different from person to person, from thing to thing, non-legal professionals sometimes can't start, only lawyers through the experience of the facts and the law of different levels of judgment, can be accurately applied to the specific case, in order to maximize the protection of the client's interests; This application process is full of, especially in the court of law on the process of debate, is the Legal wisdom to compete in the arena, is the highest degree of knowledge and wisdom of lawyers comprehensive test. The requirements of the profession and training, so that lawyers to the knowledge and wisdom of the use of these two other professions can not often use the task of daily, it is this kind of day-to-day vocational training, so that the profession of lawyers become the knowledge and wisdom of the representative of the profession, so that lawyers can enter the various strata of the social elite; it is also because of this, lawyers in the countries of the world by the people's universal respect.

The development of the lawyer's profession. Because of the knowledge and wisdom of the lawyer's profession, so that lawyers have a wealth of experience in business management and urban management, so in the development of lawyers, there are a lot of people turned to other industries, more in two directions, one is business management, the second is urban management. From the enterprise management point of view, lawyers undertake business cases are enterprise management cases, lawyers in the process of handling cases in contact with the client is mostly business management, in the process of communicating with business managers, lawyers were able to learn certain business management and market operation of the key technology, these general employees need a long time to accumulate knowledge, lawyers can be mastered very quickly; and a large number of cases are also for the lawyers The establishment of their own business relations to lay a good foundation of human resources, which are lawyers to enterprise management development has created good conditions, so that some lawyers at the appropriate time temporarily out of the lawyers business, to their own familiar consulting industry, management industry development, to become a good entrepreneurs. The second direction of the lawyer is the city management, the purpose of the law is to protect the citizens and legal persons of the person, property and freedom, the law in the form of words to show this purpose, and the government is through the establishment of organizations to complete this protection process; lawyers in the process of using the law, the existence of the government's purpose and value have a more sober understanding of the process of undertaking the case, the adjustment of the government and enterprises, the government and the The relationship between government and enterprise, government and citizen has a deep understanding; So once the lawyer into the city management, such as become mayor, judge and people's congress, can from the protection of citizens and enterprise political interests, through the legislation to adjust the social strata, the interests of various groups of contradictions, make the city to the rule of law, so as to establish a good employment and investment environment, so that the city residents living standards continue to improve.

The freedom and independence of the lawyer's profession. As a profession, the fundamental purpose of the emergence of lawyers is to help the client to get out of trouble in court, lawyers are first litigation lawyers, and later with the development of the times the emergence of consulting lawyers, but even today, litigation lawyers still account for the vast majority of lawyers.
