Answer Explanation:

Attorneys finds it more convenient to advocate for prosecutors or the police whom are believed to be upholding law and order in the society but may find it difficult to defend a guilty person against serious charges. But it is worthy to note that the failure of these attorneys to advocate for both parties can permit the law enforcement to trample on the liberty of anyone and everyone, even those that may be innocent.

Answer:

Explanation:

The United States legal system is founded on the basis that it is better to let a guilty individual(s) go free than to wrongly convict an innocent individual(s).

A criminal defense attorney's job is to raise reasonable doubt in his or her client’s guilt, as long as it is ethical to do so. Attorneys are required to zealously represent their clients, no matter what their personal view of the suit may be. Defense attorneys are required to do their possible best to advocate for their clients, even if the attorney believes the client is guilty.

IT IS NOT THE ROLE OF THE ATTORNEY TO DETERMINE WHETHER A CLIENT IS GUITY OR NOT. IT IS THE ATTORNEY'S JOB TO MAKE SURE THAT HIS OR HER CLIENT GETS A FAIR TRIAL.
