And yes, I realize PW is different than real life in the court.
So, how many of you want to be/are lawyers?

Although everybody I've defended I knew personally. If a problem takes my interest, I'm usually all over it gathering every bit of info I can. When I get enough info, I can make conclusions that may or may not be accurate. I could tell one of my stories here, if anybody wanted to judge me as a lawyer.
I like a man with a big ... vocabulary.

You know you can't just walk up to the door and go 'hi I'd like to be a lawyer' and they then shower you with legal briefs and money, saying 'welcome to the Bar Association! We're so glad you knocked on our door,' right?

The horror!
I won't let games turn me in another direction! I shall continue to try making my dream possible! I shall become a plumber like Mario! That fights turtles whom threaten his land! I'll only have to work on Mondays! Hoorahh!
Oh, and just to tell ya, real world court isn't as easy as Phoenix Wright... you get stuck and you don't have months and months to find a solution. But at least it's less linear!

Phoenix has (or at least thinks he has) the luxury to choose which clients to take, largely based on if he thinks they're genuinely innocent, but I'm not sure that choice exists in the real world (certainly not to the same extent that Phoenix displays, anyway). I just couldn't stand the thought of defending someone who actually murdered (or raped, or otherwise harmed) another person.
And Miles' side of the court isn't much better: you're building a case against a person who's charged with a crime, and if they're actually innocent and you convict them anyway... that's a really heavy burden to bear if the truth emerges post-trial. At least it would be for me.
There's too many risks involved, and you're playing with lives, of all things. I've wondered sometimes about becoming an attorney, but at the end of the day, I'm not sure I could stomach the sort of court battles portrayed in the game (ignoring their ficticious nature, of course).
On a completely unrelated note I'm related to a lawyer. :P

I absolutely love to travel, and I plan to speak multiple language in the near future (right now I only speak English and French, but I'm starting Spanish this year and I will do Japanese in University), which is why I'm interested in diplomacy (that kind of job also have a tendency to give you some useful contacts...).
And finally, prosecution. IT has absolutely nothing to do whit Phoenix Wright (Actually, I both Phoenix Wright becose of my interest in criminal law). I'm someone that only work properly under pressure, I don't mind working overtime and I usually have a very good judgement. I also read quite quickly, which is actually quite important when you are in laws... Too bad my spoken and written English isn't that strong (I guess I could always work in Quebec, thought...).
Oh, and just to make everything more convenient for me, my local university's law and computer science program are among there best.

Personally, I could never live with myself if I defended people like killers or rapists and got them free, and I can't help but suspect that it can be a bit of a dangerous position if you've got a big case on your hands, like if somebody was threatening to kill you or hurt your family or somethin' if the case didn't go exactly the way they wished for it to go.

After playing the PW games, I really don't wanna be a lawyer. In fact, the PW games make it seem more dramatic.

I think I'm not good at being coldhearted or emotionless enough. I'm a very emotional person.
It's one of my career choices though.

If a lawyer can be emotional enough it can actually be very good for the case sometimes. Just be whatever you like to be best, though ;)

But making up retarded court cases with your friends, with the use of DBZ action figures, is pretty fun.
