I had heard of a bunch of other terms with the legal profession but somehow Esquire was never one of them. As usual Wikipedia to the rescue:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esquire

Esquire (abbreviated Esq.) is a term of British origin, originally used to denote social status. Within the United States, its use as a postnominal honorific is often, but not exclusively, assumed by licensed attorneys. The term carries no legal requirements or restrictions in the United States, and little social distinction today outside of the United States.
