Here's a good reason: Learn about Law.
Judges know more than lawyers. Wouldn't the system be better suited without the two lawyers arguing?
It is not the judge's job to educate litigants in the courtroom. It is their job to hear both sides of a lawsuit and to take into consideration all evidence presented before them.
Lawyers are necessary to give a voice to those who cannot speak for themselves or who do not have the skills necessary to be a pro se litigant. What about having a skilled, licensed individual, practicing law in order to represent people is so wrong?
Really, I think the only people who are opposed to lawyers are the ones who seem jaded by the legal system for some reason.
