I just wanna get a general sense of what a typical daily workday is like for a lawyer who doesn't work at court but rather in the office setting most of the time. What are the typical job duties like for real estate, patent, immigration, family, corporate lawyer? How much travel, phone calls, and reviewing documents is involved in work? How many hrs do lawyers typically work? Thanks in advance for any insights.

Looking to get into a new career, but I don't know what I want to get into. I am currently a Paralegal and a Real Estate Agent. I don't really like the paralegal thing. Long hours, little money. Real estate agent is great, just slow going, and I want to do that part time. What would be a good profession to look into? I don't have alot of money to go back for expensive education. I like financial stuff and the real estate stuff... Just want something relatively easy to get into. Anyone have any suggestions?
