What is the Difference Between a Barrister and a Lawyer?
While the terms “barrister” and “lawyer” are often used interchangeably, there are distinctive differences between the two roles. However, it is important to understand the difference.
Legal Roles Unveiled:
A barrister is primarily focused on courtroom advocacy, legal research, and providing specialized legal opinions. They are often sought out for representation in complex litigation cases. Barristers are often what you would think of when thinking about sitting in an actual court case. On the other hand, a lawyer encompasses a broader scope, including solicitors who engage in client consultations, negotiate settlements, and handle legal documentation.
Lawyers can often do other work apart from the court hearing itself and is a more general term, as opposed to a barrister, which is a specific term used to describe a type of lawyer who sits in on and advocates during a hearing.
