Congrats!

What a great way to spend a weekend. Huge congrats to you and your son!

peterskinner · 15 May 2017, 07:28 PM

My instinct is that nobody cares what watch we wear. Why would they? To us they are precious things; to the wider world...just a watch.

congratulations to you and your son. I wish him a great career ahead.

They do to be an "attorney at law." In times past most states didn't have bar exams but now they do to police and protect the profession.

Thanks. I was honestly curious, although in rereading my post I could see how it could be interpreted as trying to undermine the accomplishment. That was not intended. With those genes, I'm sure he'll breeze through the bar exam. I know some WF law grads and they are all very successful in their chosen field of law.

Congrats to the Kerr family on a great accomplishment and the start of what will surely be many more.

By the way, is this son not into Rolexes? I noticed his wrist isn't included in any of the watch pics.

I didn't see it that way at all; it is a good question. There are distinctions in the words and it matters, which you picked up on. An attorney at law is an officer of the highest court in a jurisdiction and holds a license to act on behalf of contracted clients in that jurisdiction. An attorney in fact is someone who holds the ability to act on behalf of an individual for a special agency by virtue of an appointment by the principal, which we call a "power of attorney." There are nuanced limitations on both attorneys at law and in fact.

A lawyer is one learned in the law, more specifically, a counselor, but not necessarily an attorney at law. Hence this is why you will see "Attorney and Counselor at Law" if the individual is a JD/LLB holder and has passed the bar.

Now, this is digging deep as hell into it, but there are circumstances where a lawyer, in the sense I stated above, can represent a client. The only one I know of is in immigration matters, I think an advocate on the rolls of the DoJ or whatever can file paperwork on behalf of a client. However, they cannot represent a client in immigration proceedings before the Executive Office of Immigration Review (EOIR) or any appellate court thereof.
