There are different aspects of being county counsel. In my county, the office is split between litigators and the counseling & drafting division. The attorneys in our counseling & drafting division have no litigation skills. So depending on your county setup, you might not be able to retain all of your existing skills and learn new ones
I was seconded to a city attorney office a long time ago to try municipal infractions cases, have several friends who have worked in large and small city attorney offices, and have worked in various contexts with city attorneys. In rural government I have long been fascinated by how fractious small town politics can be, especially when it comes to land use matters. In many rural counties budgets are VERY tight so salaries aren’t great and resources can be scarce. In the flip side a good municipal attorney is a godsend for the community, yo if you’re able and can navigate the politics you can make a really positive difference in the community. The skills question really depends on the nature of the jurisdiction and how big the office is. If you’re in a small country you may end up doing most everything from advising the mayor or city manager on constitution law and land use issues to supervising the defense of municipal liability cases to overseeing municipal contracting and contract administration. In a larger office the scope of your work. Ight be more limited. Are you looking at a particular municipality or just asking in general?
