The most distinctive feat-ire of the English legal profession' is,of course, the division between banisters' and solicitors;. Barristersappear before the“bar"' of justice, hence their name. They areassociated with one of the four Inns of Court(Lincoln's, InnerTemple, Middle Temple and Gray's)，which date from the 14 thcentury.，While the national organization of solicitors, the LawSociety ,6 did not receive a Royal Charter until 183一，solicitors cantrace their profession back to the 16' century. Out of a total of 6,800 barristers, 3，800 practice? actively. There are 30，000 activesolicitors.
 

    One may not practice simultaneously as a barrister and solicitor.The barrister is an advocate" in the higher courts, a specialist, and,quite literally, a“lawyer's lawyer"，because usually he can beretained only妙a solicitor. The solicitor, on the other hand, isretained directly by the client to act as a general advisor. Whilesolicitors do specialize, partnerships(frnns)preserve the generaladvisory nature of their work. Barristers, on the other hand，cannotform partnerships or firms although they can share "Chambers".

    While the barrister and solicitor receive different training, eachmust apprentice himself prior to qualification. A solicitor mustusually have a university degree, pass the qualifying examinations,and serve a two-year period of“articles”" with a practicingsolicitor. A barrister must normally have a university degree and, ifhis degree is in a field other than law, a one-year Diploma in Law.In addition to passing the Bar Examinations,“the would-be barristermust join an Inn of Court, attend a required number of dinners at hisInn and take part in other traditional activities. He must also serve ayear's“pupillage" with a practicing barrister after completing hisexaminations.
