Lawyers/Attorneys

Lawyers are people who do a service to the people to help with certain legal actions. There are many different types of lawyers, some good, some bad, but the purpose of the lawyer is to help the client in whatever situations arise. Having been raised by two attorneys as my parents, I am somewhat biased as how my thoughts on the subject is. I believe that they are needed on many occasions because they have the knowledge and experience that justifies the use of their time and effort. And when it comes to lawyers or attorneys, they come in many flavors, such as family law, criminal law, corporate law, and real estate law, among others. Each of these different types of lawyers are experts in their respective fields. But there are two sides to this equation. There are plaintiff attorneys who (in example context) are the ones blaming the other. And then there are the defense attorneys who try to defend their client from being blamed. While most people have mixed feelings about either side, such as the person who has the defense attorney do not like the plaintiff attorney and vice versa, each serve a purpose to withhold.

Many people do not like attorneys because of their ethics, and that is because of the harmful media spouting anything they can to make them look like the bad guys. While on many occasions, this may hold true because of the lust for power and greed for money. Attorneys are paid very well for their profession, and the ones that get paid more than others, regrettably, try to win at all costs, often hurting their clients reputation or even their own. But my opinion on the matter is that lawyers or attorneys, however you call them, are a needed profession due to the fact that the majority of the public is unaware or ignorant to the legal matters at hand, and they are here to help you.
