In the United States, there are currently ten major legal fields. On top of these, there are many sub-specialties in the legal field that make up the even larger category of attorneys called “attorneys”. All of the different types of Attorneys, including lawyers, can be found in a “Lawyer’s Office”, which is a location where all Attorneys practice Law.

The most common type of Attorney is a Criminal Law Attorney, who deals with cases of Criminal behavior such as murder, manslaughter, arson and drunk driving. Many times an Attorney practicing in this field will be called upon by a prosecutor, who is trying to prove a defendant’s guilt, to conduct an interview and interrogate a suspect. A notable example of an Attorney who conducted such an interview with OJ Simpson was John Edwards, who is currently being prosecuted for the death of his wife. It is not uncommon for an Attorney to say “You know nothing” at this point in time, after suspecting a potential criminal, so that they have something to base their defense on.

Another popular type of Attorney, who is most well-known for representing wealthy or prominent clients, is a Personal Injury Attorney. The most famous Personal Injury Attorney, who is well-known on television, is none other than Richard Zuckerberg, of “The Social Network”, and a recipient of the Golden Globe Awards for his work in helping the poor in China. Most commonly, an Attorney specializing in Personal Injury Law, will work on a contingency basis, which means that he or she will not charge any fees until they receive their compensation claim. For instance, if a rich client comes into the office, only to be told by the Lawyer that they may be entitled to compensation because of some accident that they suffered at work, rather than being charged a fee until they receive their money, the Client would most likely be more receptive to the Lawyer’s services if they were represented by someone who represents them well.

Lawyers who work in the realm of Real Estate represent properties or real estate entities such as apartments, condominiums, houses, town homes, and so forth. Two-piece suits are most common for attorneys who represent real estate assets. This is because real estate assets are not always liquidated, in the same way that bank accounts are not always liquidated. For instance, unless a person has defaulted on a mortgage loan, or has had the foreclosures on their properties sold, real estate assets are usually very marketable, so an attorney representing a real estate client should have a simple two-piece suit, preferably dark-colored, and with a briefcase or leather office bag.

Lawyers who deal with corporate law, such as corporate law firms, represent corporations, partnerships, and limited liability companies (LLCs). A British style suit, which may include a blazer, dark trousers, and black shoes, are also quite popular among corporate lawyers. A more casual blazer of this type is probably more advisable for attorneys who work for firms rather than individuals. The typical look for an attorney working for a corporate law firm is a white or gray business suit, with black pants and a blazer. If a lawyer has a young son, he is almost certainly not required to wear a suit, as parents generally allow children to dress in casual clothes.

Attorneys who deal with family law commonly have two basic looks: a white or gray business suit, and a white or gray three-piece suit. If they are dealing with a sizable amount of money or several notable clients, they may decide to invest in a designer suit. In many cases, a top hat is added to the suit in order to complete the traditional look. Attorneys representing child-based families may also opt for a cute little pink bow tie or fedora hat. The classic conservative look is a tweed suit and a black or gray blazer.

A more casual attorney working with less notable clients may prefer to wear a nice fitted tweed suit and a black or gray blazer. A classic white or gray suit is also popular. When the suit wearer is dealing with less notable clients, he or she will probably want to choose a more relaxed and casual garment. An informal linen suit, such as a dress, is frequently popular with this type of person.

The point of selecting the proper attire for a British Literal Lawyer is to get as comfortable as possible. Being comfortable, in fact, is even more important than being right! The suit you choose should be perfect for you, rather than having to fit into some generic mold. Most importantly, the garments you wear should make you look your best. A professional who is serious about their work is an excellent candidate for fine British tailored clothing, whether it be a suit or a blazer.
