Generally, yes. But there are situations where an attorney must recuse himself, or other situations where the court will not permit a lawyer to represent a spouse. It's all on a case by case basis, and the law and also legal ethics will determine what may or shouldn't be done. The court is the final arbiter in these matters. But note that if an attorney represents a spouse, and it is later determined that it was illegal or unethical (owing to facts not know at the time), a complaint with the bar or even an indictment may follow. This is a general question, but this general answer probably outlines the situation adequately.

Generally, no. The age of majority is 18. That's when the law considers you an adult and you can make all your own decisions. Until then you need your parents' permission.

The suffix 'yer' is often used to indicate someone that does something. Lawyer would be someone that does the law. Another example is sawyer, someone that saws.

Yes, they can represent you in another state. That is one advantage of using a lawyer there rather than locally.
A child lawyer, sometimes called a guardian ad litem, will represent the best interest of the child and only the child. These types of lawyers usually come into play during child custody battles.
I do not have a family lawyer for my family at this time. However, should the conditions change in which a lawyer is required, I will be sure to have one.

A lawyer is hired to represent you. So yes, lawyers go to court to represent you. HOWEVER, in most cases, you are still required to be present with your lawyer in the court room.

Absolutely. Attorneys are not biased because you may owe another money. Now the attorney whom you owe money too may refuse to represent you until all monies are paid and you place a retainer.
