Ohio: attorneys by county of address and status, from the Supreme Court of Ohio's attorney directory list (88 counties, with admission decade, private practice and Spanish speakers). California: active, inactive, judge and not-eligible licensees in each of the 58 counties, from the State Bar's county table. Michigan: active State Bar members living in each of the 83 counties, with private practice and the change from 2024. Idaho: members by status in each of the seven judicial districts. Arizona: active State Bar members in each of the 15 counties (the Bar's 2022 report). Washington: WSBA licensees of every type (lawyers plus limited licensees) in each of the 39 counties, with the attorney counts by member type. Pennsylvania: active attorneys in the seven counties the Disciplinary Board's annual report lists, and the Board's statewide status counts. Each record carries the source's own as-of date and a rate per 10,000 residents from the Census Bureau's county estimate. Only counts are published, and where a count is built from a directory file no name, birthdate, address or registration number is kept or written. In Ohio, counts of one to four in a disciplinary, deceased or other status, an admission decade, private practice or Spanish are withheld, and where a withheld count could be worked out from a county's total or the statewide figures, another count in the same group is withheld too. Every state record ties to its source's own total, and every published number is read a second time from the source file before release.","key":"jurisdiction","count":312,"keys":[{"key":"AZ","url":"https://probativegrowth.com/data/v1/attorneys/jurisdictions/AZ.json","records":17},{"key":"CA","url":"https://probativegrowth.com/data/v1/attorneys/jurisdictions/CA.json","records":59},{"key":"ID","url":"https://probativegrowth.com/data/v1/attorneys/jurisdictions/ID.json","records":9},{"key":"MI","url":"https://probativegrowth.com/data/v1/attorneys/jurisdictions/MI.json","records":86},{"key":"OH","url":"https://probativegrowth.com/data/v1/attorneys/jurisdictions/OH.json","records":91},{"key":"PA","url":"https://probativegrowth.com/data/v1/attorneys/jurisdictions/PA.json","records":9},{"key":"WA","url":"https://probativegrowth.com/data/v1/attorneys/jurisdictions/WA.json","records":41}],"endpoints":{"key":"https://probativegrowth.com/data/v1/attorneys/jurisdictions/{jurisdiction}.json","all":"https://probativegrowth.com/data/v1/attorneys/attorneys.json","search":"https://probativegrowth.com/data/v1/attorneys/search.json","changes":"https://probativegrowth.com/data/v1/attorneys/changes.json","csv":"https://probativegrowth.com/data/v1/attorneys/attorneys.csv","openapi":"https://probativegrowth.com/data/v1/attorneys/openapi.json"}}
