English term or phrase: assistant counsel
Hallo proz-Community,

ich übersetze gerade einen Antrag eines homosexuellen Paares, die gerichtlich festhalten wollen, dass sie die rechtlichen Eltern eines durch Leihmutterschaft gezeugten Kindes sind. Hierbei ist auch eine vertragliche Vereinbarung (stipulation) als Beweisstück angeführt, die von einer "Mrs...., esquire, assistant counsel of the Pennsylvania Department of Health" ausgeführt wird.

Wäre "assistant counsel" eine Rechtsberaterin des Gesundheitsministeriums von Pennsylvania? Ist "esquire" einfach nur eine Formsache wie "ehrenwerte/r"...?

Vielen Dank für eure Mitarbeit!

Frau RAin ..... Justit/ziarassistentin
Explanation:
Best avoid Rechtkonsulent/in - a downgraded title with III Reich overtones, inter alia, in Berlin for 'non-Aryan' lawyers post-1938.

Justitiar/in bzw. Rechtsberater/in is, incidentally, an inhouse job that is often advertised in the Austrian and German Press.

As per Veronika N. in the discussion entries, esquire - used in the UK for males-only and as a 'Volljuristin' - might well prefix the JA - not Justizangestellte- title.
