Revised Layout edit

Hello all, I have some suggestions and questions for the layoff of this article. I was just wondering why "History" was so far low in the article? From all the articles I have been seeing on wikipedia, it seems the "History" section is towards the front. Therefore, my revised layout goes: 1. History 2. Terminology 3. Education 4. Responsibilities 5. Career Structure 6. Professional Ass. and regulation 7. Compensation 8. Title 9. Prejudices against lawyers. If anyone disagrees with me, I would love to hear some input or any other suggestions/ advice. Thank you for your time. Jmmonty16 (talk) 23:57, 2 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

Merge from Advocate edit

Merge Advocate to this article because they're same profession. Capankajsmilyo(Talk | Infobox assistance) 09:00, 22 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

No, they're not, at least not in all jurisdictions. Nikkimaria (talk) 00:30, 23 May 2019 (UTC)Reply
Concur. In many jurisdictions, the advocate is one of several distinct legal professions (or jurists). --Coolcaesar (talk) 20:29, 2 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Pronunciation edit

I suggest having an IPA guide to show pronunciation, since the pronunciation can vary with accents. This would help non native speakers. 2600:8801:FB13:6B00:3C45:3596:BD2C:D49E (talk) 22:47, 11 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
