After having played both sides of the fence, I would say don't practice :)
You can make just as much money and spend less time at work. At either way, you are hosing away your life, your family and your relationships.
But if all you want to do is make money or be powerful, go for it. Defense attorney: make money. Prosecuting attorney: be powerful.
I'm not into either so I quit. TAA-DAA!!!

I would rather be a prosecutor.
Most people who are being tried for an alleged crime are quilty. Most defense lawyers these days seem to go out of their way to try to get a quilty person off the hook. That is immoral, unethical, and fraudulent.
Sometimes prosecutors are not much better. They seem to go out of their way to convict someone of a crime even when the evidence in no way supports the charges. It seems, though, that the prosectors are less quilty of it than the defense attorneys.

Defense attorney. Especially for the poor. Too many innocent people going to jail and taking pleas instead of fighting the system for full rights. Everyone should be entitled to a good defense, not only the wealthy.

I'd be a prosecutor, because I wouldn't be able to lie and try to keep a guilty person out of jail just for a paycheck.

Defense, because I wouldn't be scared about putting an innocent person to jail.
