"Lawyer" is a generic term for anyone who practises law, but we also distinguish between "solicitor" and "barrister" and perhaps other terms.

The Oxford Hachette French Dictionary says
juriste nmf

1. (qui étudie le droit) jurist
2. (qui pratique le droit) lawyer

But the meaning of English "jurist" depends upon whether you're translating into American English or British English. The mark "Now US" in the NSOED 's* first definition of "jurist" means that the use of English "jurist" for French "juriste" may be taken by American readers, but not British readers, to mean "lawyer" or "judge". British readers should take "jurist" to mean only someone who has expert knowledge of law.
From Merriam-Webster's Unabridged Dictionary :
jurist

1 a : a person who practices law : LAWYERb : JUDGE
2 : a person skilled in the philosophy orscience of the law : a scholar in the law

lawyer

1 : a specialist in or a practitioner of law one (as an attorney, counselor, solicitor,
barrister, or advocate) whose profession is
to conduct lawsuits for clients or to advise
as to the prosecution or defense of lawsuits
or as to legal rights and obligations in other
matters

But, Nick, what´s the difference between SOLICITOR and BARRISTER? For me, it´s always difficult to use which term for whom.

Broadly speaking, a barrister specialises in representing people before the courts.

http://www.i-uk.com/servlet/Front?pagename=OpenMarket/Xcelerate/ShowPage&c=Page&cid=1079976717963 The legal profession in Britain is divided into two branches: barristers (advocates in Scotland) and solicitors. Solicitors undertake legal business for individual and corporate clients, while barristers advise on legal problems submitted through solicitors and present cases in the higher courts. Certain functions are common to both - for example, the presentation of cases in the lower courts.
Barristers must pass professional examinations before being called to the Bar (Barristers are known collectively as the Bar), and they must then serve an apprenticeship or â??pupillageâ?? with a qualified barrister for one year. Solicitors must also pass professional examinations and serve a two-year period of apprenticeship called â??articlesâ?? in a solicitorâ??s office. Once qualified in this way, a newly admitted solicitor is supervised for three years.
A person (the client) who needs help with a legal problem will go to a solicitor. If necessary the solicitor will select and employ a barrister to work on the case. A client cannot go directly to a barrister.

Barristers are employed on a case-by-case basis.
