One of the most popular professions among the young people of our country is the profession of a lawyer. In my opinion the profession of a lawyer is very interesting, diverse and quite necessary for regulation of social relations in the state. A graduate from the Law department or law institute may choose his place of work and occupation from a number of possible ones. He can be either a barrister at the Bar or a judge at the People’s Court. He can be a procurator or a procurator’s assistant at the Procurator’s Office. He can be also a notary at the notary office or a legal adviser at an enterprise or a legal advice office.
A lawyer must be a perfect expert in laws and their proper usage. The lawyer may deal with different types of people so he should be competent in human psychology and human understanding. In addition to his profession the lawyer must have a broad cultural training. The profession of a lawyer may give the specialist a lot of opportunities to use his professional and personal competence.
Soon we’ll be able to join the army of lawyers. Now we study at the Law department of the Academy of the Federal Penal Service of Russia. We do our best to become good specialists. We study a lot of general and special subjects: Roman Law, Labour Law, Family Law, Constitutional Law and Administrative Law, Civil Law, Criminal Law, Philosophy, foreign languages, etc.
We should study well and remember that all of us must administer justice properly and observe legality.
