[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have worked with several Black attorneys who use Esq. in their signature block, and they aren’t pretentious at all. I have wondered if they did it because they had trouble with people assuming they aren’t the lawyers on the team because of their race. I would look for another way to signal that, I think, because there is no circumstance in which “Esq.” doesn’t look silly, but I’m sure they had good reasons because they were reasonable people. [/quote] This is interesting—I recently started working with a group of mostly black attorneys and noticed that they use it way more than all the old white guys I’ve worked for in the past. [/quote]
