TYPES OF PRACTICING LAWYERS IN BRITAIN

(1) In general, barristers are engaged in advocacy (trial work) and solicitors- in office work. Solicitoris a type of practicing lawyer in Britain who gives ad­vice, does the necessary work when property is bought and sold, and defends people, especially in the lower courts of law. In general, a barrister undertakes no work except through a solicitor, who prepares and delivers the client's instructions to a bar­rister. Solicitors confer with clients, draft documents, conduct negotiations, prepare cases for trial, and generally manage the day-to-day administration of a lawsuit. They retain barristers for ad­vice on special matters or for advocacy before the higher courts. They have a right to act in all courts as the agents for litigation or representatives of their clients, but they may appear as advo­cates only in the lower courts. If one wants to make a will the best man to advise him is a solicitor. If a person gets into trouble with the police he / she can ask a solicitor to help prepare his de­fence.

(2) The official organization of solicitors in the UK is the Law Society, a voluntary group, incorporated by Parliament. The education required of a solicitor includes a law school course. Furthermore, to qualify as a solicitor one is to join a practicing solicitor as a "clerk" and to work for him (ap­prenticeship) for a period of five years (three years for univer­sity graduates) in order to pass the Law Society exams.

(3) Barristeris one of the two types of practicing lawyers in Eng­land, the other being the solicitor. A barrister speaks in court and presents the case before a judge or jury. The lawyer represents a litigant as advocate before a court of appropriate jurisdiction. Only barristers (not solici­tors) may appear as advocates before the High Court. A solicitor can provide a crucial support role to a barrister when in court, such as managing large volumes of documents in the case or even negotiating a settlement outside the courtroom while the trial continues inside.

(4) Barristers are experts in the interpretation of the Law. They are called in to advise on really difficult points. To be a barrister it is necessary to be a member of one of the four Inns of Court in London. Inns of Court are four institu­tions that have historically been responsible for legal education. A prospective barrister must pass some examinations established for the inns by the Council of Legal Education and must read law and serve his apprenticeship with a practicing barrister for not less than a year. A barrister is required to accept any case for a proper pro­fessional fee, regardless of his personal feelings. Barristers can­not carry on any other profession or business.
