Can I legally use Esquire even though I am not a lawyer?

Esquire has nothing to do with being a lawyer it was originally a social rank slightly above a gentleman.  I couldn't possibly comment if you are eligible to use it or not.

I would think twice before relying on a website for your legal needs. The website you are probably thinking of is LegalZoom.  They have a disclaimer (as most sites do) at the bottom of their page which basically states that the information on their website is not intended to be legal advice or a substitute for a professional legal opinion.\n\nMy feelings regarding these type of sites are very negative. It is illegal for any non-attorney or unlicensed attorney to render a legal opinion or provide legal services, so why would you want to pay some non-attorney or an attorney who is not licensed in your state to provide you with legal services? \n\nRemember the law also varies from state to state, and a boilerplate form may not cover your state's specific requirements as to what constitutes a legal document.  \n\nAlso, just because Robert Shapiro lent his name to the site means nothing.  The man is basically an incompetent jurist --  remember the O.J. Trial?  In any event, would you want a criminal defense attorney to prepare your estate plan, health care proxy, or draft an operating agreement?

It is not illegal but it is not very smart either. They came get you for resisting arrest, disorderly conduct or obstruction of justice and take you in for those. At a minimum you would get printed and probably get to sit in the clink for a short while. You may win in court but is it really worth it?

Nobody is required to have legal counsel. A person is allowed by law to act in their own defense. Remember the old saying..."A man who is his own lawyer has a fool for a client."\n- Hunt\n\n\nYou are certainly permitted to dismiss ANY legal counsel and act as counsel in your own defense, but I highly recommend nobody do this.

What sort of rights. I'm looking for a case to take on right now. Is there money involved?

Because I am an attorney, I have to say: I am not your attorney. I do not represent you. If you feel you have a valid claim, you should immediately consult an attorney in person. I am not advising you one way or another to do anything.\n\nThe answer is more complex than either of the other respondents seem to indicate, partially because your question is unclear.\n\nIf you mean to ask whether you can buy Abercrombie clothes, take off their label, and put on your own label, I think that is a form of trademark infringement.\n\nIf you mean to task, however, whether you can make your own clothes under your own label that are similar to Abercrombie's in things like materials, size, and style, I think the answer is probably yes, but there are many factors that it depends on.\n\nIf you plan on doing this as a business, you should find a trademark lawyer to advise you.  Look in the yellow pages for a firm that advertises in trademarks or intellectual property.  You may need to spend as much as a thousand dollars to get a good answer to the question.  Ideally, take an example of what you intend to do and an example of the Abercrombie clothes that are similar to yours.

hello, \n\nyou can apply for your N-400 naturalization.  You will have to pay biometrics as part of this process but it will be final.  Once you are naturalized you do not have to renew anything or pay any more fees.  You do  not need a lawyer for this process unless you have any criminal convictions which may pose a problem with the application. Just fill out form N-400 on the uscis web site and send it in, that all there is too it.  Process takes about a year

I am 99% sure that the answer is no.  If you are not on the tittle then you are not the owner of the home.  You should really double check with a lawyer if you are thinking of taking possesion.

Lawyers are very slick and if you are not careful they can weasel you out of your money and without any evidence there is nothing you can do about it. Just make sure you read the fine print.

In a way, but just like doctors and lawyers are required to report certain things to protect their license, so are CPA's.  If you have a question and you aren't sure if it's "illegal," you could always use, "I have a friend who..."  It also depends on your CPA, some are not so "by-the-book" and they don't stress out if their clients share things with them that may not be entirely "kosher."  You just have to talk to your CPA.  Good luck :)

See the link below for the source of the following:\n\nQ: When writing to someone who claims the title ''Esquire," I was taught to leave off the designations Mr., Mrs., or Ms. Also, what is the proper usage of Esquire when sending an invitation to a couple?\n\nA.W., Green Bay, Wis. \n\nA: ''Esquire" is a professional designation in the legal arena, not a social designation. When you correspond with a lawyer, you have two choices: Write the person using a normal salutation (''Mr. Robert Jones" or ''Ms. Cynthia Adams") or put ''Esquire" after the name, using the abbreviated form (''Robert Jones, Esq." or ''Cynthia Adams, Esq.").\n\nYou would never use both the courtesy title of Mr. or Ms. and the professional designation of Esquire. Finally, when writing to a lawyer and his or her spouse, never use ''Esq." Instead, address the couple as ''Mr. and Mrs. Robert Jones."

WHY would you sign anything without knowing what you are signing??? I have never understood why people do this? You must have had some idea what you were doing?!\n\nYou don't need to listen to the above. The damage is done already. You can talk to an attorney (which you should have done before). But, to answer your question, NO, you do not have any legal rights now. It is too late.

You can try, but you don't want to find out it's deficent when it's too late.\n\nYou might try your local lawschool/law library.  My lawschool had a wide selection of forms for do-it-yourselfers.\n\nAnd it might not be so bad to call an attorney.  You might be surprised at how inexpensive it turns out to be.

No, it is already implied that it could be used since it is a newpaper column.  Also, since she doesn't use your real name, she doesn't need permission.

Yes you can do anything legal without a lawyer it is just a matter of going to your local courthouse and going to the law library in there and tell them what you are trying to do and most likely the will give you a book with a lot of different forms in it and you find the forms you need copy them and file them with the court as directed in a timely manner but follow all the guidelines and make sure you have all your evidence because the smalllest error and the will dismiss your case and you will have to start all over again
