Sammanhangsberoende definition på engelska:

Official Solicitor

The Official Solicitor acts for people who, because they lack mental capacity and cannot properly manage their own affairs, are unable to represent themselves and no other suitable person or agency is able and willing to act. He usually becomes formally involved when appointed by the Court, and he may act as his own solicitor, or instruct a private firm of solicitors to act for him.

Sammanhangsberoende definition på svenska, från Wikipedia:

Rubrik:

Överförmyndare

Text:

Verksamheten omfattar tillsyn av:

förmyndarskap/föräldraförvaltning, till exempel om motstridiga intressen finns mellan en förälder/förvaltare och en omyndig vid en bouppteckning

god man för myndiga som på grund av till exempel sjukdom inte kan ta tillvara på sina tillgångar eller föra sin talan

och om detta ej är tillräckligt förmyndarskap där personen ifråga förlorar sin rättshandlingsförmåga.

Asker: Tack för förslaget, men jag har nu hittat en annan översättning, "offentlig advokat", som jag kommer att använda. Tack för hjälpen i alla fall!

disagree  Charlotte Andersson: Överförmyndare=chief guardian. Överförmyndaren utövar tillsyn av förmyndare och goda män.
