The attorneys new office was similar to her former one, except that it was on a quieter street.
The answer is a, because you are talking about the office that belongs to the attorney. When you make a word possessive you put an apostrophe "s" after it.
Correctly written:
The attorney's new office was similar to her former one, except that it was on a quieter street.
