Questions

How many Catalan-speaking lawyers are there in Spain?
We list 25, in 5 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?
Palma de Mallorca, with 12 of the 25.
Is Catalan unusual for lawyers in Spain?
5% of the 485 lawyers we hold in Spain are recorded as working in Catalan. 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.
