A lawyer is someone trained and licensed to advise people about the law and represent them in legal matters. In Britain, lawyers are divided into solicitors (who advise clients and prepare documents) and barristers (who represent clients in court). The term 'lawyer' covers both.

「lawyer」是经过培训并获得执照，可以就法律问题向人们提供建议并在法律事务中代表他们的人。在英国，律师分为事务律师（为客户提供建议并准备文件）和出庭律师（在法庭上代表客户）。「lawyer」一词涵盖两者。

Un abogado es alguien capacitado y licenciado para asesorar a las personas sobre la ley y representarlas en asuntos legales. En Gran Bretaña, los abogados se dividen en solicitors (que asesoran a clientes y preparan documentos) y barristers (que representan a clientes en el tribunal). El término «lawyer» cubre ambos.

「lawyer」は法律について人々にアドバイスし、法的問題で彼らを代理するための訓練を受け、資格を持つ人です。イギリスでは、弁護士はソリシター（クライアントにアドバイスし書類を準備する）とバリスター（法廷でクライアントを代理する）に分かれています。「lawyer」という用語は両方を含みます。

변호사는 법에 대해 사람들에게 조언하고 법적 문제에서 그들을 대리하도록 교육받고 면허를 취득한 사람입니다. 영국에서는 변호사가 사무변호사(solicitor, 고객에게 조언하고 서류를 준비하는 역할)와 법정변호사(barrister, 법정에서 고객을 대리하는 역할)로 나뉩니다. 'lawyer'라는 용어는 이 두 가지를 모두 포괄합니다.
