			=== '''Passing Exams''' ===
			Unlike other jobs, exams in the legal profession require applicants to demonstrate a significant amount of knowledge as well as the ability to locate knowledge on their own. With the constant stream of new laws and court cases, lawyers must stay on top of this stream of information. To protect the integrity of this job, we limit the amount of information available on this page. However, to give potential lawyers a starting place, please visit [https://www.democracycraft.net/forums/courts.19/ this page] for helpful resources.

			==== Representation in court ====
			Lawyers can be hired to represent individuals in court. While all citizens have the right to defend themselves, it's advantageous to hire a lawyer to skillfully represent oneself in court, utilizing their knowledge of the law to win the best outcome for their client. Again, this can be done independently, or as part of a law firm.
