lawyer = someone whose job is to advise people about laws, write formal agreements, or represent people in the court..

in americaan english, a lawyer is often called a counsellor ( counselor) and called attorney when he/she speaks in the court..

in british english :D , lawyer who speaks in the court is called a barrister.,while a solicitor works mainly from an office but may also appear in the less important courts..
