I think they do. I'm trying to recall that MACUSA scene with Newt. There was like a jury & a judge but I can't remember a lawyer?

Oh wait, I think there are lawyers. In HP, that scene of Dumbledore defending Harry. He's not a lawyer per se but since he's Headmaster, he takes precedence to 'defend' Harry because of his accusations of using magic in-front of muggles (which isn't allowed).
