6. I Chose this career because in a lawyer career, you are responsible for helping clients have the best possible future by providing adequate legal representation and advice. This responsibility gives the work significance but can also wear down an attorney who becomes emotionally involved. A lawyer must always provide the best possible representation but must not get personally attached. Lawyers are well-paid but often need to work long, hard hours. When preparing for a trial, it is not unusual for attorneys for miss sleep because so many hours are dedicated to research and presentation.

An attorney is expected to follow the laws at all times and be an ethical example to others. Being a lawyer is a rewarding profession that also carries a great deal of responsibility.
