A court of law is the official judicial arbiter of disputes in a municipality, state or country. Judges rule on evidence, procedure and sometimes the facts of a case in both civil and criminal cases. Their decisions become binding. Cases can then be appealed by a party who wants to challenge the rulings made by the judge. Lawyers who argue cases before judges are usually called litigators. In criminal cases in most U.S. states requires the court of law to appoint an attorney to a defendant who cannot afford legal counsel.
