Hi, I work for a large law firm. I'm not a lawyer, but I work with a ton of them.

You must know your legal theories well then.

True that. I'm the communications director for the firm, so when reporters have questions about our cases, I answer them.

In different countries, there are different generalizations about the way legal work is divided up among different legal professions.

Really? Do you mean lawyers do only certain things, and perhaps paralegals do others? Or is it something else?

Legal jurisdictions actually determine who is recognized as an attorney.

Oh, I see. And this differs between countries, and also within them I suppose.

Yes it does. That's why the term lawyer can vary by country.
