1 lawyer **** law·yer n
['lɔːjə(r)]See:Cultural note: LAWYER In Gran Bretagna gli avvocati, i lawyers, si distinguono in: "solicitors" e "barristers" (chiamati "advocates" in Scozia). I "solicitors" di solito forniscono assistenza legale in materia di compravendita di immobili, testamenti, recupero crediti e istanze di divorzio e ci si può rivolgere a loro direttamente. Alcuni sono qualificati a rappresentare i propri assistiti sia nelle cause civili che in quelle penali. I "barristers" non trattano direttamente con i clienti ma intervengono dietro richiesta del "solicitor": sono qualificati per esercitare nei tribunali di grado superiore, mentre i "solicitors" in quelli di grado inferiore. Negli Stati Uniti gli avvocati sono di solito chiamati "attorneys"; si occupano di qualunque tipo di causa, civile o penale, e possono rappresentare i loro assistiti in tutti i gradi di giudizio, sia nelle "state courts" che nelle "federal courts". solicitor barrister www.lawsociety.org.uk/home.law -
