My brother is Lawyer.
That's interesting, what kind of work/cases does he usually deal with?
He is corporate lawyer, so boring stuff really.  Of course the role of lawyer varies greatly across legal jurisdictions.
Of course. That seems like it's a cozy job at least. I'm sure there are other perks that are good to have?
Sure like good paid vacation and others.  But working as a lawyer involves practical application of abstract legal theories.
Well that sounds good at least. Do you think that there is much stress involved with that job?
No, I don't at least not in his job.  I just learned that a paralegal, advocate or chartered legal executive can sometimes be called lawyer, but that is not the case for my brother he went to law school.
That is very interesting that there are other lesser educated roles that can be referred to as a lawyer. It sounds like your brother is in a good position then. What do you think the differences are between, say, a paralegal and a law school graduated lawyer are?
Well a paralegal is an individual who is retained by a lawyer to perform some delegated assigments from a lawyer.
Oh, so it is an educated assistant position to the lawyer, that's good to know. What kind of assignments can they do typically?
