    Attorneys in fact, meaning one appointed by legal guardianship and need not be a law school graduate, like say an executor of a will, someone given power of attorney.

    eta--you'll notice in ads, like the old fashioned Yellow Pages, attorneys are listed as Lawyers, not attorneys. The lawyer becomes attorney at law once you hire him/her.

    I was a Paralegal, and that's what the lawyers told me was the distinction.
