Often seen lingering outside the brig, the Lawyer's main job is to represent their jailed clients and defend what precious few rights they have. With space law being what it is, this often involves referencing highly obscure and practically always made-up statutes and shouting random Latin and big legal terms at people until one side confesses they actually have no clue what they're talking about and concedes the argument.

In the past, Lawyers often ended up fighting security and busting out criminals rather than help conduct trials, and as a result, they were disbarred from practicing. Since then, lawyers have been brought back a gimmick job available for people who join after roundstart on Thursdays. While there're four slots open on these days, they're still rather rare creatures. In all likelihood, you've probably seen more demonic lawyers than actual, legitimate human ones.

Regardless, their characteristic suits and briefcases still exist on-station in legal closets, typically found in the Courtroom. As usual, the latter is more often used to knock people up rather than store evidence proving a person should/shouldn't be knocked up. Also, the Information Office is often considered an unofficial office for lawyers, both professional and amateur.
