Attorney

From Conservapedia

In the United States, an attorney is an officer of the court who represents litigants, usually for money. Attorneys are sometimes called lawyers.


“ An attorney at law is an officer of the court, and as such is required, in the United States, to take a binding oath of office to observe the United States Constitution and the constitution of the state of residence. Each state regulates by law the training and qualifications of attorneys. Usually a preliminary examination in general scholarship is required, followed by study at a school of law and sometimes by a clerkship or apprenticeship, from one to two years, with a practicing attorney. Finally, an applicant must pass an examination in law before being admitted to the bar.[1] ”
