Depending on the size of the municipality a prosecutor serves, job duties can vary. In larger offices, prosecuting attorneys may be assigned to specific areas of the law, such as traffic violations or juvenile offenses. In smaller offices, they may be responsible for all aspects of criminal prosecution.

Prosecuting attorneys begin a case by reviewing police reports and performing research. They may meet with witnesses or victims. They use their gathered information in court to present the case against the accused defendant. Prosecuting attorneys must follow cases through each stage of the judicial process and communicate with all involved parties. At times, this requires coordination with additional attorneys, the police and other professionals.

In order to become a lawyer you must go to law school. Prosecutors must attend three years of law school to earn their Juris Doctor degrees. You can go to Harris Stowe to get this kind of degree.

The engaging thing about this career to me is the talking. I like to have debates and talk to other people so we can figure out who and what is right. That's what you do in this job. You have discussions and you defend a specific person for a crime either they've committed or been accused of.
