Lawyers and legal practitioners play many different roles in the practice of law. Within a law firm, they generally fall into one of two categories -litigators or transactional lawyers. Each of this areas have its own range of specialties. For example, litigators conduct research, write legal briefs or memoranda, and provide advice, opinions and other legal assistance to companies and individuals. While acting for a client, litigators may initiate, prosecute or defend litigation or arbitration on the client's behalf. Transactional lawyers negotiate and draft contracts for a business or financial deal, draft and oversee real estate and probate transactions, and work to keep clients in compliance with provincial and federal laws.
