Answers:
There is no precise definition other than a very general one meaning an attorney who attends court at either the local or appellate levels. Generally, "transactional" attorneys are those who do not attend court and who deal with business matters.
The term is pretty meaningless. Here's an example: In my old firm, you were either in the litigation or the transactional departments. I was in the transactional department and I went to hearings several times a month. In my current firm, there are litigation, transactional, association, estate planning, development, family law, and other departments. I'm in the association department, and I still go to court, but not as much as a I used to go.
