Barister

A barrister is a type of lawyer in certain legal systems, notably in the UK, who specializes in courtroom advocacy and legal interpretation. They are typically engaged by solicitors to provide expert advice on complex legal issues and to represent clients in higher courts during trials and hearings. Barristers are trained to present cases effectively, analyze evidence, and interpret the law to persuade judges and juries. They usually work independently or within chambers, and their role is distinct from solicitors, who handle initial client consultations and broader legal matters.
