Questions

How many French-speaking lawyers are there in Colombia?
We list 15, in 3 cities. That is the number whose working language we can trace to a published source, not the number that exists.
Which city has the most?
Bogotá, with 11 of the 15.
Is French unusual for lawyers in Colombia?
33% of the 46 lawyers we hold in Colombia are recorded as working in French. A consular list records the language because the mission publishes it for its own citizens, so the figure reflects who publishes lists, not only who speaks what.
