When Washington became a state in 1889, the state constitution codified the Washington State Office of the Attorney General (WA OAG) as part of the executive branch. The Attorney General's Office is now the state’s largest law firm, encompassing 28 divisions with over 600 attorneys and 650 professional staff charged with representing over 230 state agencies, boards, and commissions.
