    In this lesson we are going to have a look at the notion of legal occupations and explain basic
    terms which refer to the people who work in these jobs.
    The most general term is a lawyer who according to Black's Law Dictionary, is "a person
    learned in the law; as an attorney, counsel or solicitor; a person licensed to practice law."
    In practice, legal jurisdictions exercise their right to determine who is recognized as being a
    lawyer; as a result, the meaning of the term "lawyer" may vary from place to place. Below
    we are going to discuss the basic differences across Anglophone countries.
    In England and Wales the legal profession is split between the solicitors’ and barristers’
    professions and lawyers usually hold one title.
    In the USA an individual licensed to practice law is referred to as an attorney at law or, more
    often, simply an attorney - the terms barrister and solicitor are not typically used.
    Nonetheless, attorneys within the United States usually must be "admitted to the bar", i.e.
    must be granted permission by a particular court system to practice law in that system.
    Then attorneys are permitted to conduct all aspects of litigation and appear before those
    courts where they have been admitted to the bar.
    A bar association is a professional body of lawyers. In many Commonwealth jurisdictions,
    the "bar association" comprises lawyers who are qualified as barristers or advocates
    (collectively known as "the bar", or "members of the bar"), while the "law society"
    comprises solicitors.
    The Inns of Court in London are the professional associations to one of which every barrister
    in England and Wales (and those judges who were formerly barristers) must belong. Today
    there are only four Inns remaining: Gray's Inn, Lincoln's Inn, The Inner Temple and The
    Middle Temple.
    A solicitor is a lawyer who traditionally offers legal services outside of the courts. They have
    more direct contact with clients whom now they also frequently represent in courts not only
    lower but more and more often higher courts (High Court, Court of Appeal), i.e. they act for
    a client (as an attorney – tu: pełnomocnik). Solicitors may conduct litigation by making
    applications to the court, writing letters in litigation to the client's opponent. They may
    specialise in many areas of law but usually they choose one area of specialisation. To
    become a solicitor a law student must enroll with the Law Society as a student member and
    take a one-year course called the Legal Practice Course and then usually undertake two
    years' apprenticeship, known as a training contract.
    A barrister is not an attorney and is usually forbidden,
    either by law or professional rules or both, from
    "conducting" litigation. This means that while the barrister
    speaks on the client's behalf in court, the barrister does so
    when instructed by a solicitor. This difference in function
    explains many of the practical differences between the two
    professions. Barristers are also engaged by solicitors to
    provide specialist advice on points of law. Barristers are
    rarely instructed by clients directly (although this occurs
    frequently in tax matters). Instead, the client's solicitors
    will instruct a barrister on behalf of the client when
    appropriate.
    The practical difference between the two professions is twofold:
    1. A barrister will usually have rights of audience in the higher courts, whereas other
    legal professionals will have more limited access, or will need to take additional
    qualifications to do so. In this regard, the profession of barrister corresponds to that
    part of the role of legal professionals found in civil law jurisdictions relating to
    appearing in trials or pleading cases before the courts.
    2. Barristers used to have a major role in trial preparation, including drafting pleadings
    and reviewing evidence. In some areas of law, that is still the case. In others, it is
    relatively common for a barrister to only receive a "brief" from an instructing
    solicitor to represent a client at trial a day or two before the hearing.
    3. Barristers often have a more specialised knowledge of case-law and precedent.
    When a solicitor in general practice is confronted with an unusual point of law, they
    sometimes seek the "opinion of counsel" on the issue.
    4. In court, barristers are often visibly distinguished from solicitors by their apparel. For
    example, in Ireland, England and Wales, barristers usually wear a horsehair wig, stiff
    collar, bands and a gown. As of January 2008 Solicitor advocates are also be entitled
    to wear a wig, but wear a different gown
