    A Lawyer can give legal advice and can represent individuals or entities in legal matters. A Solicitor deals directly with the public or a corporation and can advise legally.

    Solicitor is a legacy from British Raj in India. Lawyers from India can enrol as a solicitor after they pass the Qualified Lawyers Transfer Test (QLTT) . Qualified Indian lawyers must apply for a “certificate of eligibility” from the Law Society of England and Wales. A two-year practice is also required before an Indian lawyer can qualify as a solicitor. Solicitors advise clients and draft pleadings/documents, but engage advocates for conducting the case in the court.
