Law/Patents - Law (general) / Position in a lawfirm
English term or phrase: Associate
I ran into a difficult term due to the differences in BrE and AmE.
The document was from a British court, and a party was an associate to a lawfirm.
In the US, an associate, unless specified as a position without the possibility of partnership with promotion, has a vested interest in the law firm, so the translation Associate>Partner makes sense for me, for lack of another term in Danish.
However, the client felt this was a misleading title, as the associate did not own any part of the company.
The associate is a qualified lawyer who works for a legal firm in the UK.
Any help?

disagree  Sven Petersson: An associate attorney is a lawyer and an employee of a traditional law firm who does not hold an ownership interest as a partner. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associate_attorney
