A lawyer friend of mine has devoted herself to the service of humanity. Her special area is called“public interest law”(公共利益法). Many other lawyers serve only clients who can pay high fees. All lawyers have had expensive and highly specialized training, and they work long, difficult hours for the money they get. But what happens to people who need legal (法律上的) help and cannot pay these lawyers' fees? Public interest lawyers fill this need. Patricia, like other public interest lawyers, gets less money than some lawyers, because she is willing to take less money. Her clients have the help they need, even if they can pay nothing at all. Some clients need legal help because stores have cheated them with bad goods. Others are in unsafe houses. Their cases are called“civil”cases. Still others are criminals (刑事犯罪), and they go to those public interest lawyers who are in charge of“criminal”cases. These are just a few of the many situations in which the men and women who are public interest lawyers serve to extend justice (正义) throughout our society. 1. A person who needs and uses legal help is called a {A; B; C}. A. lawyer B. client C. judge 2. Public interest lawyers serve {A; B; C}.
