It is 4112. I am a lawyer too, admitted in my home country and I have selected 4112 as the NOC. The NOC is for the occupation your are carrying in your home country, even when you have to requalify and obtain a license for the profession in Canada. It's the same for doctors and other professions requiring a license.

No, it is not. However, in the application, they do ask you if you have a Canadian professional license but it is not essential. One of the FAQs for the express entry states as follows:
43. Does an Education Credential Assessment (ECA) mean that an applicant’s professional credentials have been recognized to get a license in a regulated profession?
No. Getting an ECA for immigration does not mean that your work experience and professional credentials are automatically recognized in Canada to get a license in a regulated profession. If you work in a regulated profession, you must still go through the process of getting your license in the province or territory that you plan on settling in. Regulatory authorities determine an applicant’s readiness for licensure by assessing and recognizing “qualifications,” which may include an assessment of education, experience/competencies and language proficiency, in addition to other requirements. Applicants intending to work in a regulated profession should contact the regulatory authority in the province where they plan to live to find out more about how to obtain licensure.
You would decide to get a license depending on which province you would like to reside in. For lawyers its a 1.5 year long gruelling process to get licensed in any province in Canada.
