Explanation:
Cara Colega,
De facto, falta um pouco de contexto, mas presumo que no inglês se quererá antes dizer "appellant's counsel" (é normal omitir-se o possessivo em textos jurídicos em inglês). "Appellant" significa "a party who appeals a lower court's decision, usually seeking reversal of that decision" (Black's Law Dictionary). Em Portugal, quem recorre de uma acção judicial designa-se por "recorrente" (presumo que o termo também seja aplicado no Brasil - se o termo aplicável for "apelante" use esse termo). Quanto a "counsel" não significa necessariamente um advogado, significando antes "one or more lawyers who represent a client" (Black's Law Dictionary). Assim, consoante o contexto, significará "advogado" ou "advogados" (ou "mandatário" ou "mandatários"). Espero que isto lhe faça sentido atento o contexto e que a minha ajuda lhe seja útil.

Ou então se calhar significa \"appellants\' counsel\", no caso de o(s) advogado(s) representar(em) mais do que um recorrente.

Na minha explicação, eu disse \"Em Portugal, quem recorre de uma acção judicial\", mas quis dizer \"Em Portugal, quem recorre de uma decisão judicial\".

neutral  Amilcar: advogado PELO apelante / recorrente cabe, mas não se pode excluir a poss de o advogado ser O RECORRENTE. Advogado recorrente é mais segura, cobrindo tb abreviadamente o caso de "recurso interposto a favor de cliente"
