Problem:

Here's what I want to do:

- Have a custom post type called Lawyers (uses the slug: 'lawyers' and posts are shown at mydomain.com/lawyers/post123)

- Have a page at mydomain.com/lawyers that shows the Lawyers posts.

So I'd really like to be able to have no archive for lawyers, and instead have a page I can build using different tools.

Solution:

There isn't such a straightforward way to achieve it within Types plugin, and it is a limitation of WordPress, for example, the the page "lawyers" URL is:
domain.com/lawyers/
you create a lawyer post "2", the URL is:
domain.com/lawyers/2/

Wordpress will take above URL as second pagination of page "lawyers".

I suggest you try this:
1) Remove the page "lawyers"
2) use "lawyers" as slug of post type "lawyers"
use Views wordpress archive to customize the archive page of post type "lawyers":
domain.com/lawyers/
