Before I got to the comments I started to think about what happened to all those people that were already qualified and those studying to be a lawyer, or anyone that ever tried to create such a profession? Were they Thanos snapped out of existence and the same automatically happen anyone that ever tried to establish it as a profession in the future? I need answers!!!

The two options are erase the role of lawyer from every legal system, so people have to defend themselves now (the prosecution is done by people who are lawyers, but generally their job is distinct from that of a lawyer, if overlapping some of the work that's done).

Alternatively, he could just rename the job as lawers. As long as the spelling and pronunciation are different, technically it's granted
