Why do lawyers specify that they are “attorneys at law?” Are there some attorneys that are not “at law?”
In: 892
In America, “attorney”, “attorney at law”, “cousel”, “counsellor”, “lawyer” and “esquire” all mean the same thing since there is only one type of lawyer (though there are some specialties like patent law). The difference is their historical development, which has been pretty well explained in this thread.
