To be fair,
"Sorry, I went to a top law school and worked at a fancy biglaw firm for a decade before moving on to an amazing in-house legal job... I've simply never heard the term 'civil attorney' used by anyone before, I guess I'm just too prefitigiouf to have ever come across that sort of weird lingo, haha."
Wow good one, I'm sure that explanation will totally fly on a messagebort filled with T14 law grads who also ground out their obligatory 5-10 year stints at V100 firms before moving on to typically miserable in-house legal positions (as is the normal trajectory of an extremely mundane life of corporate law drudgery).

Obeezy c. 2015: Short balding fag with a TTTT pedigree who likes to complain about how much he hates working a miserable shitlaw job and struggling through a bout of serious depression following the suicide of his ugly Asian girlfriend.
Obeezy c. 2020: Extremely tall and handsome alpha stud who went to a prestigious college (where he was a hockey enforcer btw) before going to a top law school and becoming a biglawyer who then transitioned into an awesome and powerful high-paying corporate law job where he barely even has to work... which is perfect because it gives him plenty of time to spend with his beautiful wife and perfect kids.
Obeezy c. 2025: "Lol yeah I don't really 'work' anymore" because he's now worth $10+ million and is fully retired (travels for four months a year with his incredible loving family), scoffing at loser Trumpkin fags who still wagecuck as he relaxes and effortlessly pwns them for fun with a few keystrokes on his phone from a tropical beach somewhere.
Greatest 10 year redemption arc in internet history?
It all almost seems unbelievable... literally!

Weird use of this meme considering that I'm literally just reciting what all of us who have been poasting here remember.
"You don't remember what you think you remember, you fucking idiots" is a pretty interesting strategy to employ on a bort filled with high IQ lawyers who make their living by noticing details and remembering shit.

Lawyer here.
I don't know what a civil attorney is. Never heard the term used.
I'm guessing any lawyer who's not a criminal lawyer?

I asked ChatGPT and apparently it’s a phrase laymen use. Lawyers certainly don’t.
Which suggests TBF is neither Claire nor zappin. Fascinating.

Lmao Obeezy now literally trying to REVERSE BIG WILLIE this and invoke CHATGPT to "prove" that ackkkkkkshually I'M the non-lawyer here "because real lawyers never use this term."
This is quickly becoming an excellent example of why it's impossible to reason with shitlibs, and instead they must simply be dealt with directly and forcefully in other ways.

I mean, here’s Elon Musk’s AI weighing in. I love how this is such a “gotcha” moment for you. Adorable.
Like I said maybe it’s a shitlaw thing? Lawyers don’t use it.
Prompt: I’m a lawyer and I’ve never heard the phrase “civil attorney” before.
Grok: The term "civil attorney" isn't a standard or widely used phrase in legal circles, which might explain why you haven't come across it. It seems to be a colloquial or informal way some people refer to lawyers who handle civil law matters—cases involving private disputes between individuals or entities, like contracts, property, or torts, as opposed to criminal law. Think of it as a layperson's shorthand for a lawyer who deals with lawsuits, disputes, or transactions outside the criminal justice system.

Damn... if only we had a whole message bort filled with actual practicing attorneys who could weigh in on this issue decisively and authoritatively based on their own professional experience spent working in the law.
Oh well -- instead I guess we'll just have to "ask ChatGPT"!
Actual lol over here, you're on a roll today Beez

I asked Grok too!
Like I said lawyers would say they’re in litigation, M&A, PE, EB, L&E, white collar, etc. they’d never say they’re a “civil attorney.”
Savor your huge W though. You finally got me ;-) ;-)

Are you even an attorney? Aren't you just a catty faggot?
I've been a corporate attorney in a major metro area for 15 years and I have absolutely heard this term used before.
Are you people flaming?

Oh well if a notorious faggot on the internet says I'm lying about my own experience, I guess I must be lying then.
> "Hey man, long time no talk... reaching out because my cousin just got busted for [X], would you be able and interested in representing him potentially?"
> "Hey bro good to hear from you, naw sorry I'm a civil attorney / I practice civil law, I don't do criminal stuff."
> "Damn, OK well do you have someone you know that you could refer?"
Etc.
Again, are you people flaming with this "I've never heard the term 'civil law' or 'civil lawyer'" stuff? You think lawyers in that context say things like "Sorry man, I'm a soft IP lawyer" or "Sorry bro my practice focuses on mergers and acquisitions"? This must be flame.

I conducted an investigation into the tern "Civil attorney" and reached the following conclusion as to its meaning:
It is a term used by shitlawyers who will basically handle any non-criminal matter that comes across their desk.

Haha holy shit you’re right per ChatGPT
The phrase “civil attorney” isn’t standard lawyer-to-lawyer terminology in the U.S.
• Big firm lawyers almost never use it. They’ll describe themselves (and colleagues) by practice group or specialty: litigator, M&A lawyer, antitrust partner, securities litigator, restructuring associate, etc. If someone said “I’m a civil attorney” at a large firm, it would sound imprecise and unsophisticated.
• Small general-practice lawyers (sometimes derisively called “shitlaw” when they handle a grab-bag of divorces, PI cases, landlord-tenant, wills, contracts, etc.) are more likely to use “civil attorney” as shorthand. It distinguishes them from “criminal defense attorney” in language that non-lawyers understand. For marketing to clients who don’t know legal categories, “civil attorney” can be clearer.
So: it’s mostly a layman-facing phrase, used more in small firm / generalist settings than in biglaw.
Want me to pull some real-world examples (like attorney websites) so you can see how it shows up in practice?

NSAM: A friend of mine uses the term "civil attorney" a lot. What does this mean?
Solicitor General: Okay, let's break down what "civil attorney" means. It can be a little confusing because it overlaps with other legal terms. Here's a comprehensive explanation:
**1. The Core Meaning: Dealing with Civil Law**
* **Civil Law vs. Criminal Law:** The most important distinction is understanding the difference between civil and criminal law.
* **Criminal Law:** Deals with offenses against society (e.g., theft, assault, murder). The government prosecutes these cases.
* **Civil Law:** Deals with disputes *between individuals or organizations*. This can involve contracts, property rights, personal injury claims, family matters, and much more.
* **A "Civil Attorney" is a lawyer who primarily handles civil law cases.** They don't prosecute criminals; they represent clients in non-criminal legal matters.
**2. What Types of Cases Do Civil Attorneys Handle?**
Here are some common areas where you'd find civil attorneys:
* **Personal Injury:** Car accidents, slip and falls, medical malpractice, product liability.
* **Contract Disputes:** Breach of contract cases between businesses or individuals.
* **Property Law:** Disputes over real estate, boundaries, easements, landlord-tenant issues.
* **Family Law:** Divorce, child custody, support/alimony, adoption (though some family law attorneys specialize *only* in this area).
* **Business Law:** Formation of businesses, contracts, commercial litigation, intellectual property.
* **Employment Law:** Wrongful termination, discrimination, wage disputes (can be either representing employees or employers).
* **Estate Planning/Probate:** Wills, trusts, estates, probate proceedings (though these can also be handled by attorneys who specialize solely in estate law).
* **Bankruptcy:** Representing debtors or creditors.
**3. Is it Different from "Litigation Attorney"?**
* **Overlap:** There's a significant overlap! Many civil attorneys are *also* litigation attorneys.
* **Litigation Attorney:** This term specifically refers to an attorney who spends a lot of their time in court, actively engaged in lawsuits (litigating). A civil attorney might litigate cases, but not all do. Some may focus on negotiation or mediation instead.
**4. "Civil Attorney" vs. Other Legal Titles - Clarification:**
* **General Practice Attorney:** A lawyer who handles a wide variety of legal matters, both civil and sometimes even some criminal (though less common).
* **Specialist/Niche Attorney:** An attorney who focuses on a very specific area of law *within* the realm of civil law (e.g., a "medical malpractice attorney," a "contract law specialist," an "intellectual property lawyer").
**In short, when your friend says "civil attorney," they're referring to a lawyer whose practice is focused on resolving legal disputes that aren't criminal in nature.**
To help me give you even more specific information, could you tell me:
* What context does your friend use the term? (e.g., are they talking about their own work, or someone else?)
* Do they ever specify *what kind* of civil cases they're referring to?
