[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Isn’t there a difference between attorneys and solicitors? My work makes a distinction [/quote] In the UK a solicitor is a lawyer who advises and a barrister is a lawyer who argues in court. I’ve never heard solicitor used in the us in relation to law. In securities, it’s someone licensed to market and sell a product on someone else’s behalf[/quote] You’ve never heard of the Solicitor General of the United States? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solicitor_General_of_the_United_States[/quote] It's an antiquated term in the US that largely applies to roles established in the early 19th century [/quote]
