Introduction:
The recruitment of advocates, also known as attorneys or lawyers, has evolved significantly over the centuries. Understanding this history provides valuable insight into the current practices and standards in the legal profession. This overview traces the development of advocate recruitment from ancient times to the modern era.
The concept of legal advocates can be traced back to ancient Rome. Roman advocates, or “orators,” were often skilled speakers who represented clients in legal matters. Initially, anyone could plead a case in court, but over time, specific training and qualifications became necessary. The Roman legal system laid the groundwork for many modern legal principles and professional standards.
