Which Attorney General? Of your state? The U.S.?
What are the responsibilities of attorney general's office?
Answer 1: handle foreign affairsAnswer 2: The first answer, "handle foreign affairs," is absolutely incorrect. It is the Secretary of State who handles foreign affairs. The first answerer clearly got mixed-up, I'm guessing because both the Secretary of State, and the Attorney General, are Cabinet positions, appointed by the President of the United States.The Attorney General of the United States is its highest-ranking law enforcement official in the United States, and is its federal prosecutor. S/he also runs the US Department of Justice. The US Attorney General is a cabinet-level position, appointed by the President of the United States.S/he oversees the federal US Attorney's office; and the US Attorney's office (usually several of which are located in each state) prosecutes federal crimes across the nation. The US Attorney is also considered the United State's lawyer, so to speak; and so it handles cases both criminal and civil at the federal level. It also reviews laws for constitutionality, maybe even helps draft laws. It does pretty much everything that any lawyer would do for his/her client, except that the US Attorney General's client is the entire United States federal government!In addition to the US Attorney General, though, each US state has its own Attornney General.The Attorney General of a state is said state's highest-ranking law enforcement official, or statewide prosecuting attorney. In some states, the "Attorney General" is elected, and in some it's an appointment by the Governor.State Attorney Generals prosecute statewide criminal and civil cases. There is usually an entire staff of "deputy" or "assistant" attorney general lawyers who work for the either gubernatorially-appointed or elected-by-the-people state Attorney General. His/her office may also review laws that either have been passed, or are about to be passed, to determine if they're constitutional. S/he may also help with law enforcement issues, or appeals of rulings against the state. Basically, the Attorney General's office is the state's lawyer... for almost all things, both civil and criminal.Each county in a state usually has its own -- usually elected -- county prosecutor (sometimes called the "district attorney"); and said county prosecutor is the highest-ranking law enforcement official in said county. The local county prosecutor (or "district attorney") is never called the county's "Attorney General."

What are the responsibilities of the office of the attorney general?
In most common law jurisdictions, the attorney general, or attorney-general, is the main legal advisor to the government, and in some jurisdictions he or she may in addition have executive responsibility for law enforcement or responsibility for public prosecutions.The term is used to refer to any person who holds a general power of attorney to represent a principal in all matters. In the common law tradition, anyone who represents the state, especially in criminal prosecutions, is such an attorney. Although a government may designate some official as the permanent attorney general, anyone who comes to represent the state in the same way is referred to as such, even if only for a particular case. - - Source - - Wikpedia article "attorney general"
