ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Cause lawyer

Okay, let me tell you a story.

Imagine you have a friend named Tom, who is always standing up for what is right. Whenever someone is being bullied or treated unfairly, Tom always speaks up and tries to help.

Now, Tom decides to become a lawyer so he can help even more people. But instead of just helping people with their legal problems, Tom decides to become a cause lawyer.

This means that Tom chooses to work on cases that are important to him and to make a difference in the world. He becomes a lawyer for a specific cause, like protecting the environment, fighting for civil rights, or improving access to education.

A cause lawyer is someone who uses their legal skills to help people who are fighting for a cause they believe in. They take on cases that aren't just about winning or losing, but about making a difference and creating positive change in the world.

So, when Tom becomes a cause lawyer, he is using his skills to help people who might not have a voice otherwise. He is fighting for a better world, and he is using the law to make that happen.
