A more thorough explanation: In legal terms, a defender is a person who represents or advocates for another individual in a legal proceeding, typically in a criminal case. The defender’s role is to provide legal counsel and defense to the individual facing charges or legal action. This term is often used interchangeably with “defense attorney” or “defense counsel.”
Example: The defender argued that the evidence presented by the prosecution was insufficient to prove the defendant’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
