Questions

How many French-speaking lawyers are there in United States?
We list 69, in 16 cities. That is the number whose working language we can trace to a published source, not the number that exists.
Which city has the most?
New York, with 18 of the 69.
Is French unusual for lawyers in United States?
83% of the 83 lawyers we hold in United States are recorded as working in French. A consular list records the language because the mission publishes it for its own citizens, so the figure reflects who publishes lists, not only who speaks what.
