	In fact, it is advised that, as a lawyer, you not attack Security personnel at all, even when they deserve it (fleeing is acceptable). While it may help in the short run, future shifts may have random beatings if you are seen as a threat. If you're having trouble, seek the HoS's, HoP's, or Captain's help, as appropriate.

	As a traitor, you have closer ties to security than anyone else. Officers may go into the break room alone, and make themselves vulnerable to attack; reducing the number of officers may help even when they aren't your target. Your briefcase can fit the contents of a toolbox in it, but is considerably less suspicious than carrying a toolbox around. It is not difficult to stuff it with handcuffs and flashbangs if you can acquire them from Security storage. You can also hear security radio, which gives you a lot of intel.

'''Bare minimum requirements:''' Talk to prisoners and speak to security on their behalf if asked. Encourage the [[warden]] to reduce [[Space Law|overly harsh sentences]]. [[Guide to trials|Represent]] aggrieved crewmembers if needed.

== Duties ==
*'''Consult on the law.''' Be present when people are imprisoned, so you can give the correct time. Be sure to explain the sentence for each crime and the total time. In some cases you may argue for reduced sentence times based on mitigating factors (e.g. clowning, insanity), but don't push the issue.

*'''Ascertain guilt or innocence.''' When a suspect is brought in, check the stories of officers. You may be able to convince them when they either have the wrong person or if they committed a lesser crime than thought. Ask the Detective for his forensics scanner to get physical evidence that supports your client ("your client" being any suspect brought in).

*'''Get medical care for inmates.''' Because officers usually resume their patrol after arresting somebody, they'll appreciate it if you keep inmates healthy (in the absence of a Brig Medic).

*'''Clean up the [[Brig]].''' You're going to spend most of your time here, so keep it clean! The warden needs the help; the brig is one of the messiest places on the station.

*'''Help released inmates out of the brig.''' When their time is up, bring them their belongings (sometimes they are kept in the evidence room), help them out of the brig, and make sure the warden or HoS sets their security record to "Released".

*'''Participate in trials.''' An unfortunately small part of your job; you can sometimes get trials for inmates scheduled to be executed or when you can convince the HoS that it would be entertaining. Fortunate lawyers may get the chance to defend high profile persons, like wizards.

*'''Create law-binding contracts.''' As a Lawyer the easiest and most efficient way to get something done is to [[Guide to Paperwork|create contracts]], despite popular belief. There are many different types of contracts but a common one is a contract which requests that both parties do a particular action for the other party; ie: trading helmets. If you display these contracts to the Lawyer Gods, then you MIGHT get something nice from them.

*'''Litigation.''' Health, safety, and human rights violations abound on the station, but be warned that actually getting anything done about it will test your law skills.
