Expert guidance on exploring and choosing the perfect job for you

From politicians such as Honest Abe to fictitious pitbulls such as Perry Mason to high-profile defense attorneys ready for their close-up on Court-TV, lawyers have been and continue to be American icons. But the American legal profession is much more complex than these stereotypes would suggest, having evolved into a specialized field with diverse opportunities for dedicated individuals.

Before you invest your time, money, and effort pursuing a legal career, let Careers in Law provide you with an accurate portrayal of what various specialties entail as well as tips for finding and keeping the job that's right for you.

• Match your skills and personality to the law specialty that's right for you--environmental, labor, entertainment, and much more
