A contract lawyer is defined by the roles they specialize in. If they specialize in drawing up contracts between individuals or companies, then they would be classed as such.

If I had to rewrite the question, I'd put it this way: "In a court of law if a defendant is represented by his/her lawyer or attorney, then what is the opposite of the defendant's lawyer?" The answer in this case would be the prosecutor, also an attorney/lawyer, but with opposite goals.

What is a corporation lawyer?

A corporate lawyer is a lawyer who is in charge of the legal side of a buisness. Their job is to find a way for buisnesses to do what they want under the rules of the law. They must use their legal knowledge and research skills as well as creative thinking to find a way for a buisness's intended action to work. Also, they would persuade and negotiate with other buisnesses in agreements and mergers and check to make sure that it was a legal as well as a good decison (you wouldn't want to buy into a company with billions of dollars in debt, and so a corporate lawyer would take the appropriate measures to make sure that they were a good company). They would also draft the agreements, merger conditions, and contracts. Corporate lawyers are paid very well, generally the best among all types of lawyers, with a mean salary of around $150,000 and large organizations/law firm's top corporate lawyers getting paid over $700,000. Although the job duties differ, the skills necessary to be a corporate lawyer are very similar to that of other lawyers.
