defensor

defensor

A person or group serving to protect a client's interests, not one who is employed as an agent of other individuals, an organization, or institution. Advocates, who may be community representatives such as clergymen, law students, or a panel of interested citizens, consider a program's goals and procedures in terms of what they believe is best for the individual client and argue on the client's behalf.
