Attorney

An attorney is a type of lawyer. Pretty much they do the same sort of stuff as any other lawyer. A defense attorney uses the law to render a positive judgment in favor of their client, while a prosecuting attorney argues on behalf of the plaintiff, or on behalf of the United States government (Federal and municipal).

Actress Diane McBain played an attorney in the 1994 direct-to-video film Puppet Master 5. She visited her client, Rick Myers at the police station, and advised the attending detective against improper questioning.

On the "Song of the Raven" episode of Poltergeist: The Legacy, Horace Favor was a district attorney from Mendocino, California. Several years ago, he was involved in the trial that sent serial killer Raymond Corvus to prison. Five years after Raymond was captured, the prisoner used supernatural powers to transfer his spirit into the body of a raven. The raven broke into Favor's home late at night and gouged out his eyes, killing him.
