What made me decide to become a lawyer? Almost certainly watching Crown Court as a small child. Although it’s a fictionalised representation of court cases, the process intrigued me.
It is a vocation. People underestimate the degree to which becoming a lawyer is motivated by reasons that are not strictly career trajectory related. You do have the altruistic aspect of, if I can learn the law and I understand how to apply it, I can help people with their problems.
