I think a US term. We don't call a lawyer an attorney in the UK. The equivalent for a solicitor would be the 'documentation bundles'.

attorney's work product
Written materials, charts, notes of conversations and investigations, and other materials directed toward preparation of a case or other legal representation. Their importance is that they cannot be required to be introduced in court or otherwise revealed to the other side. Sometimes there is a question as to whether documents were prepared by the attorney and/or the client for their use in the case preparation or are documents which are independent and legitimate evidence.

Definitely a US term.  Aschenbach's answer makes sense too.  :-)
