Avocat if you need an attorney, notaire if you need a French property lawyer (not to be confused with the US Notary Public).
In France, a lawyer or avocat (i.e. a French solicitor/attorney) is both a solicitor and a barrister as he or she can appear before courts of the first and second degree.
The Notaire is a public officer who drafts then records Deeds and contracts to which the parties wish to give a seal of authenticity, ensure their date, keep them in trust and to issue authentic copies of such documents.
A Notaire has a monopoly on conveyancing contracts or on establishing marriage contracts. Not to be confused with an anglo-saxon Notary who, as in the USA and the UK, mainly witnesses acknowledgements and oaths as an impartial party.

How do you say lawyer in french?
The immediate translation would be 'avocat', i.e. a French solicitor or a barrister (UK). However a French lawyer can also be a "notaire" (notary public) or a "avoué" (French lawyer appearing before the Appeal courts) or a "Huissier de justice" (the equivalent of a bailiff) who enforces judgments. Hence, in France there are different categories of lawyers but there are plans to unify the profession and merge it into one single title: Avocat. French avoués will be something of the past as from 1 January 2012. In summary, you would just say 'avocat' or 'notaire'. These stand for qualified lawyers, i.e. registered solicitors, barristers or attorneys. A non-qualified lawyer is called 'juriste' (the equivalent of a paralegal).
