Attorney general's office, attorney general's opinion

Assuming American English, not British English, the proper form would be "Attorneys' Genera"l.
"Attorneys" is the plural form of the noun Attorney while "General" is an postpositive adjective as explained in the video found here.
That has always been a strange term. "Attorney" is the principal noun but when they talk to the person they call them "general".
