Can you call yourself a "(insert number here) Amendment Consultant" and not be a lawyer?

In a local directory that we got yesterday, a local resident, who I know not to be a lawyer, has started calling himself a "Second Amendment Consultant."

Turns out he also has a really fringe right wing blog and is head of a Tea Party group that is collecting signatures for some tax repeal or another.

My question is, can one be a constitutional consultant and not be a lawyer?







The citrus mambo was the wankie wanker. Ledo's was the giveaway.

There are plenty of people who teach constitutional law & aren't attorneys. They probably could consult with anyone on the constitution.

But as for your neighbor, you get what you pay for.

3. Might be a states' laws issue? For example, using the title 'engineer' in
the state of Nevada has very specific requirements which are subsequently specific to use.

If you insist, I'll go find the statute; please don't insist. :)

4. I shall not insist.
:hi:

You hit at the crux of my question. In most places one cannot call oneself whatever one wishes without some consequences. As you say, engineers. Architects, lawyers, even plumbers.





On the other hand ..... it just occurred to me. Maybe he consults on 2nd Amendment remedies?

5. Whew! Thanks! I knew I like you for some reason.
You and Sparkly give each other hugs from me, please. Kinda the only way it works long distance and in the virtual world. :\

Oh yeah, you could also check more local regs as well. We have some county regs that are far more stringent than state regs; not with regards to this particular topic, though, now I think of it, I have in mind gun licensing regs in the city/county versus the state.
