Civil Litigation Attorney?

What are the powers of a Civil Litigation Attorney? What is their salary? How many years of school to become one?

A civil litigation attorney has the power to represent clients in a court of law. Their salary can range anywhere from $50,000 to $200k or more, depending on what firm they work with and their level of experience. It requires a bachelor's degree and a law degree, which can take 3 or 4 years of school after you graduate from college.

A litigator can make as little as $40,000 a year, with no upward limit on how much they could possibly make if they're good. A typical civil litigator in a typical firm will make around $100,000 a year.

It takes 4 years of college and then 3 years of law school to become a lawyer. Law school is absolute HELL and leaves a person traumatized for life. In addition, it will leave you with around $100,000 in student loan debt.

This is not a career path you should purse unless your only passion in life is the law... Do you go to bed dreaming about laws, spend your free time reading about law? You might be cut out of this. Otherwise, don't bother.
