Lincoln was a successful lawyer in Springfield, Illinois. He had started out many years earlier as a "circuit lawyer", travelling from town to town with the "circuit court" of that day, and handling both civil and criminal cases, mostly small stuff.
By the 1850s he had become a "big-time" corporate lawyer, representing railroads and other large businesses in major cases.
Before he became a lawyer, Lincoln had been a farm laborer, shopkeeper, and surveyor, but was not very successful in any of these trades.
