Pronunciation: [wˈɜːt ɐtˈɜːni fɔː] (IPA) 
The correct spelling of "wert attorney for" is likely "were attorney for." The word "were" is the past tense of "to be" and is pronounced /wər/. "Attorney" is pronounced /əˈtɔːni/ and "for" is pronounced /fɔːr/. When spoken quickly, the "e" at the end of "were" may be dropped, leading to confusion with "wert." However, the correct spelling is "were," which should be used in formal writing and communication.
"Wert attorney for" is an archaic or poetic expression that can be broken down into two parts: "wert" and "attorney for."
"Wert" is the archaic second and third person singular form of the verb "to be" in the past tense. In modern English, the equivalent would be "were." It is typically used with the pronouns thou, thee, thy, or thine. For instance, instead of "you were," the archaic form would be "thou wert."
An "attorney" is a person legally appointed or authorized to act on behalf of another person. Generally, an attorney provides professional legal representation and advice to clients. Attorneys can represent individuals or organizations in various legal matters, such as disputes, negotiations, or trials. They are well-versed in the intricacies of the law and are responsible for upholding their clients' rights and interests.
The phrase "for" in this context denotes the attorney's role or purpose, indicating that the person in question is acting on behalf of someone or something else. This preposition implies that the attorney has been chosen, employed, or designated to represent and advocate for another party's legal needs or interests.
When combined, the expression "wert attorney for" suggests that someone, typically in the past, was serving as a legal representative or advocate on behalf of another party. It implies the historical or poetic reference to the person fulfilling the role of an attorney, providing legal services or counsel in service to someone else.
