What is a Lawyer's career goal?

What are the career options for human rights lawyers?

  • Answer:

    Tricky question - there are many areas of law in which lawyers and others seek to protect the rights of others, though those working in the field might not be described as "human rights lawyers."  For example, those who seek to assist people accused of entering the country illegally because they were persecuted in their homeland and now facing deportation are trying to protect the human rights of others but are practicing immigration law.  Those who week to improve prison conditions or challenge police officers' excessive use of force are protecting human rights but engaging in the practice of civil rights law.  Those who help migrant workers exploited by businesses are also engaging in civil rights and other areas of practice.  Lawyers who try to ensure that the police do not violate individuals' rights by engaging in unreasonable searches or seizures often practice criminal law.
