Lawyers tense after daily display of statistics (3,5)

I believe the answer is:

bar chart

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'display of statistics' is the definition.
'bar chart' can be an answer for 'display' (I have seen 'display of information' mean 'bar chart' so perhaps 'display' could also mean 'bar chart'). I'm unsure of the 'of statistics' bit.

'lawyers tense after daily' is the wordplay.
'lawyers' becomes 'bar' (the bar can mean the legal profession).
'tense' becomes 't' (grammatical abbreviation).
'after' says to put letters next to each other.
'daily' becomes 'char' (both can mean a cleaner).
't' put after 'char' is 'chart'.
'bar'+'chart'='BAR-CHART'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for bar chart that I've seen before include "Table" , "Diagram showing figures" , "graph" , "display of information" .)
