What do you mean by saying escrow through attorney? Are you saying you will appoint an attorney to hold your money and the attorney then assures the seller he will pay him and tells him to release the 10+ coins to you? You must be dreaming or high on something if you think anyone here with a grain of common sense would do something so unsafe as you suggested. The naive will probably fall for that but a sharp thinking seller will rightly decline this proposal of yours.
For one, the attorney is not a trusted escrow. He can claim to have passed the bar and hold these and those degrees and credentials but these all do not make him a trustworthy escrow. For one, YOU could be that attorney acting as escrow to yourself. Or he might be a friend. Attorneys have been known to commit fraud too. Just because they passed the bar doesn't mean they're society's most trusted human beings.
Escrow should be a reputable middle man on this forum with a long and established history of performing escrow transactions. Or an exchange such as Localbitcoins. If you still insist on using this "attorney" then I'm inclined to think this is one elaborate pre-Christmas scam in the making. Prove me wrong by using a trusted escrow on this list:

I don't insist on using an attorney, these particular clients are first time investors into crypto and it is what they automatically suggest when dealing with this amount of $$
This crypto game has veterans uptight due to the amount of scams, you could have simply suggested the escrow link instead of making the assumption ... now i do get to prove you wrong
