What’s the Difference Between an Attorney and a Lawyer

A lawyer is simply one who is trained in the law.  They may or may not provide legal guidance to another.  Thus, anyone who has attended law school in the United States can consider themselves a lawyer.  However, until they pass the bar exam in the jurisdiction in which they intend to work, the method by which they use their lawyering skills is limited.  For example, a policy advisor or consultant to the government, who attended law school, is technically a lawyer and may offer his skills in the course of his work, but he must not cross the fine line into providing legal representation.

An attorney or attorney at law is also a lawyer.  They have attended law school and presumably “practice” the study of law as a career.  However, attorneys by definition have passed a bar examination and have been admitted to practice law in the particular jurisdiction.  They may go beyond the realm of lawyer and provide legal representation to an individual.  The relationship is more than merely providing the factual state of the law and delves into providing strategy for the client’s needs in reference to the law.  An attorney can also appear in court and other settings on behalf of a client.  An attorney is also a lawyer, but a lawyer may not necessarily be an attorney.
