A quick definition of counsel of record:

Definition: The counsel of record, also known as attorney of record, is the lawyer who represents a person or company in court or receives important legal documents on their behalf. This lawyer is officially recognized by the court and has the authority to act on behalf of their client. In patent and trademark law, the attorney of record is a lawyer or agent named in a power of attorney filed by a patent or trademark applicant.

A more thorough explanation:

The counsel of record, also known as attorney of record, is the lawyer who represents a party in a judicial proceeding. They receive formal documents and appear in court on behalf of their client.

  • In People v. Macrander, the Supreme Court of Colorado defined an attorney of record as a lawyer who has formally appeared in court to represent a party in a judicial proceeding.
  • In Maner v. Maner, the Alabama Supreme Court held that an attorney of record is a lawyer who has filed an appearance or pleading in the cause and is therefore presumed to have authority to bind their client by acceptance of service.
  • In patent and trademark law, the attorney of record is a lawyer or agent named in a power of attorney filed by a patent or trademark applicant.

These examples illustrate that the counsel of record is the lawyer who officially represents a party in a legal proceeding. They are authorized to receive formal documents and appear in court on behalf of their client.
