Retainership is simply an agreement governed by law of Contract. The Advocates Act imposes restrictions that when you are practicing as an advocate, you can do only a few other things. You can not be under service agreement with a client as employee. Pl check your terms and makeup mind.

Retainer ship is an agreement/contract between the employee and employer governed by the terms and conditions.
An advocate can be retained by certain firms, companies, societies etc. who need part-time professional services of an advocate. Such an advocate can be regular practice and there is no embargo/ restriction.
