2.CPDATTORNEY En Estados Unidos un attorney puede defender a sus clientes tanto en las cortes federales como en las estatales. En ocasiones solo cobran sus honorarios si ganan el caso (no win, no fee), lo cual les permite representar a clientes con pocos recursos sin cobrarles, si se trata de casos de gran repercusión social, con la esperanza de obtener beneficios considerables si lo ganan. Ésta es la razón por la que las compensaciones que se piden por daños y perjuicios suelen ser tan altas y llegan tantos casos a los tribunales. También existe la figura del abogado de oficio, que recibe el nombre de public defender.Attorney General (pl Attorney Generals or Attorneys General) N — (US) ≈ ministro(-a) m / f de justicia, ≈ procurador(a) m / f general (LAm); (Brit) ≈ fiscal mf general del Estado
