'A sure bet for steady work in the legal field, during an economic upturn, would be bankruptcy law, since many are likely to struggle with debt during these times and need an attorney to help them make their way through it if they end up facing a bankruptcy. Such attorneys aim to minimize loss for their clients. Such clients include either individuals or corporate debtors, individual or corporate creditors, creditor teams, and so forth. Often such clients are only available to meet on weekends and evenings. As bankruptcy laws are complex, such lawyers must be able to calmly advise their clients of their options. If they are working with creditors, they will strategize how to exact as much money from a debtor as possible. With an average salary rate of $113,000, this is a decent paying job for a lawyer.
