Today they all mean the same thing. But, historically, they have different meanings. An attorney used to be one who practiced civil law- contracts, torts, and property. And a lawyer used to refer to one who practiced public law- Criminal and Constitutional; a counselor refers to one of the many roles lawyers/attorneys serve. They are not there only to advocate for their clients in a trial; they are also there to give advice and counsel their clients.
