I believe the answer is:

suitcase

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'in this bag two things for lawyers to work on' is the definition.
'suitcase' can be an answer for 'bag' (synonyms). I am not certain of the remainder of the definition.

'in this bag' is the wordplay.
'in this' becomes 'suit' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'bag' becomes 'case' (I have seen 'Overnight bag' mean 'case' so perhaps 'bag' could also mean 'case').
'suit'+'case'='SUITCASE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for suitcase that I've seen before include "Travel bag" , "Piece of luggage" , "Travel item (two legal terms!)" , "that traveller may take" , "Sauciest sort of clothes container" .)
