Novice

/ˈnɒvɪs/ noun

Definition

In legal contexts, a person who is new to the law or legal profession, such as a law student or newly admitted attorney. Can also refer to someone entering a religious order during their probationary period.

Etymology

From Latin 'novicius' meaning 'newly arrived' or 'fresh,' from 'novus' (new). Originally used in monastic contexts for new members of religious orders, later extended to any beginner in a profession or field.

Kelly Says

While 'novice' seems like basic vocabulary, in legal settings it has specific implications for professional responsibility and supervision requirements! A novice attorney must often work under experienced supervision and disclose their inexperience to clients.
