Best Answer

In some countries (such as the UK) attorneys are divided into two categories: solicitors and barristers. Generally, barristers focus on court, while solicitors focus on client contact.

However, in other countries such as the US, there is no distinction.

What are lawyers called in England?

Actually, there are lots of different types of lawyers in the UK: * Solicitors interact with the clients, prepare documents such as property conveyances and wills, and brief Barristers * Barristers are the people who address the crown court, * Barristers come in several flavours - e.g. * ** Queens Counsel, (QCs or "Silks") who are the barristers who prosecute criminal cases on behalf of the crown. And then there are a variety of people who, although not necessarily legally qualified, provide a legal service, such as patent attorneys. In Scotland, the situation is different from England and Wales. In Scotland, you are represented by an Advocate, (who is more than a solicitor but less than a barrister, but are often solicitors in their own right) and the courts are presided over by Sheriffs, (who are themselves highly-qualified lawyers). The legal system in Scotland is more like the European system than the English or US system, so (very roughly) Advocates are there to make sure the Sheriffs play fair, instead of a judge making sure the lawyers play fair. barristers barristers
