If you dream of an attorney standing before a courtroom, significant conflicts may be brewing — particularly around material interests or possessions. Someone in your waking life may be advancing claims against you that aren't entirely honest, moving quietly until the moment arrives to press their advantage. If the attorney in your dream is defending you, take note: while your social circle will rally around you when difficulty arrives, their involvement may actually complicate matters further, generating more anxiety than the opposition itself ever would.
