An advocate is one who speaks on behalf of another, especially in a legal context, and particularly in reference to the system of Scots law.

Implicit in the concept is the notion that the represented lacks the knowledge, skill, ability, or standing to speak for themselves. The broad equivalent in many English law-based jurisdictions is "barrister".

Scotland


Advocates, members of the Faculty of Advocates, are counsel who are licensed to present cases in the supreme courts of Scotland: the Court of Session and High Court of Justiciary. Advocates wear wigs, white bow-ties, and gowns as dress in court.
