The term 'ESQUIRE' is a title given to lawyers in some countries, such as the United States. It is an honorific title that is used to denote a lawyer's professional status. The title is typically abbreviated as 'Esq.' and is often used in legal documents and correspondence. In the United States, the title is typically used by attorneys who have been admitted to the bar. It is also sometimes used by non-lawyers who are involved in legal matters, such as court clerks or paralegals.
