The State of Georgia Office of the Attorney General serves as the chief legal advisor and representative for the state government, providing counsel to state agencies, the Governor, and the Georgia General Assembly. The office is responsible for prosecuting or defending all civil and criminal cases involving the state, enforcing consumer protection laws, and issuing legal opinions on state law. Revenue is generated through state budget allocations rather than commercial activities, reflecting its role as a public service entity. Established in 1754, the office has played a pivotal role in shaping Georgia’s legal landscape and upholding the rule of law. Candidates should be aware of its commitment to public integrity, nonpartisan legal guidance, and the protection of Georgia citizens’ rights.
