Guam Is Calling
Office of the Attorney General of Guam 590 S. Marine Corps Drive, Suite 901 ♦ Tamuning, GU 96913 671.475.3324 extension 5015 ♦ Fax 671.477-4703 ♦ Email [email protected] Hon. Leevin Taitano Camacho Attorney General of Guam Guam is Calling Are you interested in gaining criminal trial experience, practicing administrative law, or handling complex civil matters all while living on a beautiful tropical island? If you are a licensed attorney, this is your chance! The Guam Bar allows licensed attorneys in good standing to practice as a government attorney for up to five years. About Guam Guam is a gorgeous island in the Western Pacific Ocean with year-round tropical temperatures and warm ocean waters. (Read: No harsh and numbing winters!) The only thing warmer than the weather and the water is the hospitality of the native Chamorro people, who are welcoming and willing to share with you the history and culture of this slice of America in the Pacific. Guam is the southernmost and largest of the Mariana Islands chain and is just a short flight away from its sister islands and a number of destinations in the Asia-Pacific region, including Palau, South Korea, Japan, and the Philippines. But don’t think you’ll be so quick to leave! Despite our size of just 544 square miles, Guam offers the convenience and luxuries of city living without the hustle and bustle of city life; world-class diving, snorkeling, and other water activities; caves, waterfalls, and hiking trails for all ability levels to explore; and we are home to international athletic events. -
