Legal Question in Consumer Law in California

Not unless they are licensed by the State Bar of California. The term attorney refers to someone authorized to act on another person's behalf as if that person was acting themselves. It is a special form of being an agent for someone. To distinguish between general purpose attorneys, who act under a grant of a power of attorney, and legal attorneys, who must be licensed to practice law, we use the terms attorney-in-fact and attorney at law, respectively. In common usage, "attorney" standing alone is implied to mean an attorney at law, whereas we add -in-fact when the person is acting under a power of attorney, rather than as an attorney at law.

Not unless also a California licensed attorney. Attorney in Fact has nothing to do with being an attorney at law.
