For example, in Canada a lawyer is not called "an attorney". A lawyer is known as a lawyer or barrister and solicitor. So your answer might be different if you are in the US, UK, New Zealand, Australia or wherever. If you are in Canada, go with "lawyer." Hope that helps.http://www.englishforums.com/English/LawyerAttorneySolicitor/wcmz/post.htmFri, 27 Feb 2009 03:01:42 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:40091maj1http://www.englishforums.com/English/LawyerAttorneySolicitor/wcmz/post.htmhttp://www.englishforums.com/English/comments12-40091.xmlShe decided to hire a lawyer/attorney/solicitor as she was going to get divorced.
