Why do lobbyists file amicus curiae briefs?
The only reason anyone files a brief as a "friend of the court" is because they have an interest in the outcome. While policy is generally made by the legislature, with the approval of the executive branch and that is usually where lobbyists work, the judicial branch's power to declare a law constitutional or un-constitutional gives them power over policy. So when a policy that the group that pay the lobbyist have an interest in the outcome of comes before the judicial branch on appeal, they might very likely file an amicus curiae brief.
