Barristers are legal professionals who specialise in advocacy and represent clients in court. In order to become a barrister in the UK, an individual must complete a law degree and pass the Bar Professional Training Course (BPTC). After completing the BPTC, a barrister must be called to the Bar by one of the four Inns of Court.
Solicitors are general practitioners who provide legal advice and assistance to clients. To become a solicitor, you must first complete a law degree and then complete the Legal Practice Course (LPC), followed by a period of "training contract," during which you work under the supervision of an experienced solicitor.
