Basically a lawyer and advocate are both law graduates but for the purpose of practise a lawyer needs to be registered as an advocate with the Bar Council under the rules of BCI and the Advocates Act. An ADVOCATE is a LAWYER, but every LAWYER is not an ADVOCATE.

A lawyer cannot be an advocate but all advocates are lawyers.
