11Law is one of the Career categories in inZOI, placing Zois within the legal profession at prestigious law firms. Three firms operate across all three cities: Dowon, Bliss Bay, and Cahaya. Law careers are rabbit hole careers with a short 6-hour work day (9 AM to 3 PM), making them exceptionally time-efficient. At the Partner level, the law career offers the highest hourly pay rate in the entire game at 340 Meow per hour. The career is thematically connected to the Trial and Justice System introduced in v0.5.0.22Law Firms44Three law firms employ lawyers in inZOI, one per city:66Law FirmCityAddedJustitia Law FirmDowonEarly Access launch (March 2025)Themis & Jones Law FirmBliss BayEarly Access launch (March 2025)Sawara Law FirmCahayaIsland Getaway DLC (August 2025)88All three firms share the same career structure, work schedule, and promotion system. The only difference is that Justitia Law Firm in Dowon has a lower entry-level salary (300 Meow) compared to the other two firms (450 Meow). Senior and Partner salaries are identical across all three.99Positions and Salaries1111Each firm has three positions arranged in a promotion hierarchy. Position limits follow the standard 6/3/1 pattern used across all three-tier rabbit hole careers.1313PositionJustitia (Dowon)Themis & Jones (Bliss Bay)Sawara (Cahaya)Position LimitJunior Lawyer300 Meow/day450 Meow/day450 Meow/day6Senior Lawyer1,164 Meow/day1,164 Meow/day1,164 Meow/day3Partner2,040 Meow/day2,040 Meow/day2,040 Meow/day11616When all position slots at a firm are filled, the game shows a notification. Players can choose to have the newest employee in that position quit so their Zoi can be hired instead.1717Work Schedule1919DetailValueWork daysTuesday, Wednesday, ThursdayHours9:00 AM to 3:00 PM (6-hour shift)Days per week3Eligible agesYoung Adult, Adult, Middle-AgedCommuteZoi departs approximately 1 hour before the shift starts2121The 6-hour work day is one of the shortest in the game, tied with Education and Academic Careers. This gives lawyer Zois the entire afternoon and evening free for other activities.2222How to Apply2424Open the Smartphone by pressing P or clicking the phone iconNavigate to the Career appSelect the Recruitment tab to browse open positionsChoose a Law listing and submit the applicationWait for a confirmation text; if accepted, the Zoi starts on their next scheduled work day2626There are no education or skill requirements to apply for the Junior Lawyer position. The Zoi must be at least a Young Adult (approximately age 20.5 in-game). Despite the legal profession's real-world educational barriers, inZOI does not require a degree or any prior achievement. This is consistent with all other careers in the game.2828Rabbit Hole Mechanics3030Law careers are rabbit hole (off-site) careers. During work hours:3232The Zoi automatically boards a taxi and is driven off-screen to the firmNo physical workplace interior exists in the game worldThe player cannot control or observe the Zoi during the shiftThere are no interactive tasks or task lists to completeOccasional pop-up dilemma events may appear (flavor events with chooseable options)The Zoi returns automatically at 3 PM when the shift endsSalary is deposited into household funds after each completed work day3434The law career is identified by a blue briefcase icon in the Career app. This distinguishes rabbit hole careers from Active Careers, where the player follows the Zoi to the workplace.3636Promotion Mechanics3838MechanicDetailsCareer BarA progress meter that fills automatically through work attendance. Simply showing up fills the bar over time.Attendance RequiredApproximately 8 to 10 working days (roughly 3 in-game weeks) to fill the bar from empty.Vacancy RequirementA slot must be open at the next rank. With 6 Junior, 3 Senior, and only 1 Partner slot per firm, the top position is highly competitive.Automatic PromotionWhen the bar is full and a vacancy exists, the Zoi is promoted the following morning.No DemotionZois cannot be demoted. They stay at their current position or advance.Rest BonusBeing well-rested before work reportedly improves career bar progress for rabbit hole careers.4040The Partner slot is the main bottleneck. Only one Zoi per firm can hold this position. If an NPC occupies the slot, you must wait for them to retire, quit, or be terminated.4141Attendance and Termination4343Missing a scheduled work day counts as an unexcused absence. After 3 unexcused absences, the Zoi is automatically fired. The counter resets when the Zoi attends a work day. Zois can voluntarily resign through the Career section of the Smartphone, but this resets all career progress.4545Retirement4848Zois face mandatory retirement upon reaching the Senior age stage. They are automatically removed from their position. No pension exists. Plan ahead with savings, a second earner, or a Business.5050Trial and Justice System Connection5252The Trial and Justice System was introduced in v0.5.0 (December 23, 2025). When a Zoi is arrested and faces trial, they can appoint a lawyer for their defense. Two tiers of representation are available:5454TierDescriptionFree LawyerProvides limited legal assistance during the trialElite LawyerOffers better chances of reduced sentences or acquittal5656After appointing a lawyer, the defendant receives a trial preparation mission with opportunity cards (questions to answer). The preparation results influence which opportunity cards appear during the actual trial, which in turn affect the verdict. Outcomes include acquittal, a fine, or police custody.5757Important note: The lawyers appointed during trials are NPC-based services. Having a Zoi in the Lawyer career does not currently grant them special trial interactions or the ability to represent other Zois in court. Community members have expressed interest in this feature, and one Steam discussion shows a player who reached Partner noting they "was hoping" for trial participation. The developer has indicated that "more actual job locations are in the works" for rabbit hole careers, suggesting potential future integration.5959Salary Efficiency6161The Partner salary of 2,040 Meow per day ranks as the 2nd highest daily salary in the game (behind the Criminal Boss at 2,169). However, when factored against the 6-hour work day, the Partner position achieves the highest hourly rate at 340 Meow per hour:6363CareerTop SalaryHours/DayHourly RatePartner Lawyer2,040 Meow6 hours340 Meow/hrLegendary Pro Gamer1,998 Meow6 hours333 Meow/hrDistinguished Professor1,920 Meow6 hours320 Meow/hrCriminal Boss2,169 Meow9 hours241 Meow/hrGeneral / Colonel1,827 Meow9 hours203 Meow/hr6565Weekly income at Partner level: 2,040 x 3 days = 6,120 Meow per week. The short work day and high pay make the law career one of the most efficient paths for wealth building, leaving ample free time for Business ownership or skill development.6666Known Bugs6868Rank 3 promotion bug (fixed): An early access bug prevented promotion to Partner in some rabbit hole careers. Career experience points were not being counted correctly after reaching the second rank. This was fixed in a subsequent patchSawara schedule display bug: The Sawara Law Firm in Cahaya displayed only 2 work days (Tuesday and Thursday) in the Edit Schedule screen instead of the intended 3 days (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday). Wednesday was missing from the display. Reported August 31, 2025 on the official forumsCourt case bugs (trial system): Trials could stall with prosecutors and defendants standing outside the courtroom. Missing UI elements made progression impossible. Non-attendance fines of 3,500 Meow were issued despite being present. Most trial bugs were listed as fixed in v0.5.4, though old saves may still experience issues7070Tips7272Choose Themis & Jones or Sawara for higher entry pay: The Junior Lawyer position at Justitia (Dowon) pays only 300 Meow, while the other two firms start at 450 Meow. The difference disappears at Senior levelBest hourly pay in the game: At Partner level, you earn 340 Meow per hour, more than any other career. The short 6-hour day maximizes free timePair with a Business: The Tue/Wed/Thu schedule and 3 PM end time leave 4 full days plus afternoons free for managing a BusinessRest before work: Being well-rested reportedly improves career bar progress for rabbit hole careers. Make sure your Zoi gets a full night of sleep before work daysPatience at Partner: Only one Partner slot per firm. If the slot is filled, your Senior Lawyer must wait. Consider applying at a less populated firmNo skill needed: Unlike real life, there are no education or skill requirements to become a lawyer in inZOI. Apply as soon as your Zoi reaches Young Adult
