remember, lawyers don't just defend, they prosecute
and trial law is a rather small amount of what many lawyers do. paperwork, counseling, negotiating, and patenting often consume large amounts of time. and that's not even counting that lawyers often don't just stay lawyers, they end up managers or politicians, positions that aren't exactly publicly popular.
lawyers write laws to keep job security for the profession. contrast with Cuba's recent family code that's iirc written in plain language anyone literate (i.e. all Cubans, suck it USA) can understand. also probably other laws of theirs.
