主 题:Lawyer barrister solicitor proctor attorney
摘 要:In the paper, I try to analyze the different divisions and titles in the United Kingdom and the United States. In the United Kingdom, the legal profession is traditionally divided into two branches, barristers and solicitors (the advocate in Scotland is equivalent to barrister); in the United States, there was never a formal separation of barrister and solicitor as in England, lawyers usually deal with a certain field of legal matters. In addition, I also try to speak something about the development and changes of proctor, as well as the two kinds of attorney and their different development in the Great Britain and the United States.
