    You have to come up with more than that little bit of information for us.

    A half page is about 125 words. That's not much. Start with a topic sentence and a first paragraph.

    I myself would be a public defender. Do you know what that is and could you write about it?

    Have you taken physics and chemistry? What about being a patent lawyer? "Demand for these specialists is being driven by an explosion in recent years in patent applications and a growing need for lawyers to protect old patents or challenge new ones." Also, "Recent graduates who find jobs at the top U.S. law firms will earn on average $160,000 this year, perhaps more if they have a postgraduate science degree or federal clerkship. The leading intellectual property firms plan to match or exceed those salaries." (from iht.com)

    Does this essay have to be "real"? What you really plan to do? Or just kind of wishful thinking?

    Public defender? To provide legal representation to people who are charged with a crime or other offense or are threatened with having their children removed from them by the government and help who is unable to afford to pay for his or her own defense?

    Environmental law would include working with corporations, ranchers, national and state parks, and consumers as you deal with legal issues related to those entities. These issues might involve patents, government regulations (for air and water quality), contracts with other companies, relationships between national parks and ranchers, property interests, or compliance with environmental laws.

    To be the court-ordered lawyer for someone who can't afford one, and to make sure everything is done right (evidence collecting, testimonies, witness finding and testimonies, courtroom behavior, etc.) so my client gets a fair deal.

    How about being a lawyer to protect the environment and keep it safe from extreme oil drilling and loggers and vacationers who write their names on big rocks, checking water quality that wild animals drink, keeping campgrounds clean, making the world a better place for us and our children.

    Wales has a lot of wild places, and Ireland is getting more immigrants who might mess up the environment, the beautiful countryside, by building huge houses and malls where pretty forests and creeks used to be.

    My aspiration has always been to be a public defender -To be the court-ordered lawyer for someone who can't afford one, and to make sure everything is done right (evidence collecting, testimonies, witness finding and testimonies, courtroom behavior, etc.) so my client gets a fair deal. Even the poor can be Equal justice under law. I want to make sure that we represent our clients to the best of our ability.

    I'll try not to be mad that you plagiarized what I wrote.
