asesor/abogado Legal principal
El Queen Counsel y el King Counsel fueron posiciones legales dentro del sistema legal británico y estaban asignados bajo el manto monárquico. Estos títulos fueron remplazados por Senior Counsel or Senior Advocate. Los equivalentes en español Abogado/Asesor Principal, Abogado Senior (Legal). Son posiciones de alto rango y son seleccionados aquellos que han cumplido 15 años de experiencia legal.
Queen's Counsel (postnominal QC), known as King's Counsel (postnominal KC) during the reign of a male sovereign, are jurists appointed by letters patent to be one of Her [or His] Majesty's Counsel learned in the law. Membership exists in various Commonwealth jurisdictions around the world, while in some other jurisdictions the name has been replaced by one without monarchical connotations, such as "Senior Counsel" or "Senior Advocate". Queen's Counsel is a status, conferred by the Crown, that is recognised by courts. Members have the privilege of sitting within the Bar of court.
As members wear silk gowns of a particular design (see court dress), the award of Queen's or King's Counsel is known informally as taking silk, and hence QCs are often colloquially called silks. Appointments are made from within the legal profession on the basis of merit rather than a particular level of experience. However, successful applicants tend to be barristers, or (in Scotland) advocates, or solicitor advocates with 15 years' experience or more
