He became a Shichibukai to find the location of Punk Hazard
Trafalgar D. Water Law, more commonly known as just Trafalgar Law, is the captain and doctor of the Heart Pirates, a pirate crew from North Blue. He is one of twelve pirates who are referred to as the "Worst Generation" and became one of the Shichibukai during the timeskip, but his position was revoked for allying with the Straw Hat Pirates and bringing down Donquixote Doflamingo.
Law became a Shichibukai to find the location of Punk Hazard. He also wanted to get into the SAD room on Punk Hazard, which was under Doflamingo's control. He gained access to SAD manufacturing room and destroyed it. He also found that the Marines were up to something.
Law's bounty increased from Beli 200,000,000 to Beli 440,000,000 before it was frozen. After he was expelled from the Shichibukai, Law's bounty was raised to Beli 500,000,000.
Law is an extremely laid-back man, who is nearly always seen calmly smiling when not put into a tense situation. He usually smiles instead when he is trying to provoke someone or is pleased that a plan went as it was intended. He seems to have little regard for fame, as he stated that he is not interested in his new bounty of Beli 500,000,000. He did not seem as eager to reach the New World as the other Supernova crews, believing that One Piece will still be there regardless while the other crews fight amongst themselves, and that he needs to steal the throne properly.
He also has a more reckless attitude when faced against other pirates that the World Government has labelled as a higher threat. He has also performed the gesture to Donquixote Doflamingo to display his contempt for his former captain.
Many people think Law to be a cold and cruel man. He has displayed a cruel side, offering to strike Tashigi yet again after already bisecting her body. He also suggested leaving the kids on Punk Hazard behind, as they were too much of a burden to deal with.
Law is very blunt when responding to people. He has no qualms explaining to other people how he accomplished nullifying their attacks with his abilities, and before that, even stated to Tashigi that weaklings do not get the right to choose the manner in which they die.
Despite Law's terse and rather cruel demeanor towards others, he has shown to have some measure of compassion, such as how he decided to help the Straw Hats find a cure for the children affected by Caesar's drugs even though he originally did not want to have anything to do with them and later he voluntarily cured the children of their drug addiction. He also appears to have a sense of honour (or at least respect for those he sees as potential rivals in the future), which is seen when he appeared at Marineford and claimed he will help Luffy, because it would be too lame if his future enemy were to die. He was also appalled when he heard that Caesar subjected the kids on Punk Hazard to drugs.

He became a Shichibukai to get closer to Donquixote Doflamingo
Trafalgar D. Water Law, more commonly known as just Trafalgar Law, is the captain and doctor of the Heart Pirates, a pirate crew from North Blue. He is one of twelve pirates who are referred to as the "Worst Generation". During the timeskip, Law became one of the Shichibukai, but his position was revoked for allying with the Straw Hat Pirates and bringing down Donquixote Doflamingo.
Law became a Shichibukai to get closer to Donquixote Doflamingo. He and Doflamingo were once crewmates, and Doflamingo even declared his intentions to turn Law into his right-hand man. However, Law discovered that Doflamingo did not care for him and planned to brainwash him to die for him. This, coupled with Doflamingo murdering Corazon, Law's benefactor, led to Law defecting from the Donquixote Pirates and swearing revenge against Doflamingo.
Law's plan to get closer to Doflamingo worked. He was able to infiltrate Punk Hazard, which is usually off-limits, and even got the Marines off his back. He also gained access to SAD, which was his stated reason for becoming a Shichibukai.
Law's status as a Shichibukai allowed him to be more open with his intentions to take down Doflamingo. He formed an alliance with the Straw Hat Pirates, with the ultimate goal of defeating the Yonko Kaido. He also had a lot of faith in Luffy, as he asserted to Doflamingo that Luffy would capture Caesar without a problem.
However, Law's plan to get closer to Doflamingo also had some drawbacks. He was forced to give up his bounty, which had increased from Beli 200,000,000 to Beli 440,000,000 before the timeskip. He also had to deal with the other Supernovas, who believed he was a government dog for becoming a Shichibukai.
In the end, Law's plan to get closer to Doflamingo was successful. He was able to get his revenge, bringing down Doflamingo and ending his empire.

Before the timeskip, Law was considered an enemy of the World Government since he is a pirate who battled a large number of Marines and a Pacifista at Sabaody Archipelago and rescued Monkey D. Luffy, a nefarious pirate at large, at the climax of the Battle of Marineford. However, after Law gave the hearts of a hundred pirates to the government, they enlisted him into the Shichibukai.
As one of the Shichibukai, Law is an ally of the Government. He has special privileges to do as he pleases without the Marines attempting to arrest him.
