Are you one among the people who love watching serials or the shows that give a clear picture of investigations of a crime? Most of the people may be interested in watching those shows but when a serious discussion is going on in the court while proving the crime none of us would even like to move away from the televisions. The whole show would revolve around criminal lawyers as they play a vital role in proving the crime. This may inspire many to become a criminal lawyer. Most of the criminal lawyers generally join a criminal law firm like AGP LLP in the initial stage of their profession and learn a lot from the experienced lawyers in the firms. The probable reasons for choosing to become a criminal lawyer are:

1. It is one of the most challenging jobs: Being a criminal lawyer, the person always needs to be on his toes while serving a client. Apart from applying the skills learnt in the law school, the criminal lawyer also needs to think like a detective to win the case. People who have a flair for investigation will definitely have an added advantage in this profession.
2. Multiple options for growth with the same professional experience: After being a successful lawyer in a good criminal law firm, in case if you are looking for a change in profession but don’t want to let go of the experience that you gained in these years, you may think of becoming a judge or a faculty in a reputed law schools.
3. Good earning potential: Our earning potential depends on our profession we choose, so people choose professions which are not seasonal and which don’t have any recessions. One among such professions is being a criminal lawyer. Once we are an established lawyer, we need not think about the future or any other profession. Although, this is not the reason for a lawyer to become a ‘lawyer’, it certainly is one of the inherent reasons.
4. A feel-good factor: Last but not the least as long as an individual honestly feels that he should do a good job, he keeps trying to bring in more and more improvement in his job. At the end of the case when the lawyer feels that he was either able to save the defendant or get him the least possible sentence or penalty, it gives an immense job satisfaction.

Being a criminal lawyer has two options, either to represent the prosecutor or to represent the defendant. Whatever you choose, each and every step you take can bring in a lot of changes in people’s life. In this profession, it is very important to listen to each and every detail provided by the client and to read between the lines with lot of patience. The judge takes a decision based on the facts represented by criminal lawyers. Hence it is rightly said that we should never lie to our doctor and lawyer. Hope everyone understands its meaning!
