Actually, Charles, that's only in New York and Los Angeles.

"In the U.S, we use the term Esquire"
Really? I have generally had more success with, "You miserable, slack-jawed, mouth-breathing, knuckle-dragging, sorry excuse for a person."

Subject: [LAW-LIB:57970] How to address attorneys in other countries
I've been asked to find out how to address attorneys in other countries (Canada, Switzerland, India, England, Russia, etc.). In the U.S, we use the term Esquire, which I know has English roots. Is Esquire also used in the United Kingdom? What about other countries? Is there a resource, preferably one online, showing how to address attorneys in other countries?
I've searched the web and have engaged the services of a few local libraries, but have not found anything yet. Thank you for assistance.
Sincerely,
Beth Langton
