Estoy traduciendo una declaración judicial. Supongo que esta abreviatura significa "licenciado" pero el tema es que no sé cómo traducirlo. Necesito la abreviatura en inglés. Tampoco que especifica en qué la persona es licenciado, así que sería algo genérico como Mr., Mrs, algo por el estilo. Tengo esta abreviatura y el apellido del señor (eg: Lcdo. Rodriguez).
Gracias por adelantado.

En algunos países (en Latinoamérica, no en España, pero también por ejemplo en Italia) es costumbre usar títulos académicos como Licenciado, Doctor o Ingeniero en lugar de "Señor Tal y Tal". El equivalente anglosajón sería poner las letras después del nombre: John Doe, B.Sc.
Bachelor of Arts is more generic, if you must, I would do "John Doe, B.A." in the absence of further information to justify a B.Sc.

Lcdo. (Mr.) Rodríguez [written just like that]
Often a Spanish person's title can be left as it is in English ... for instance, in an English document I could refer to you as "Señorita Chiacchiari".
When I am translating lists of names into English, I leave the titles of the Spanish people as they are, but I translate the titles of the non-Spanish people, for instance:
- Excma. Sra. Dª. Adelaida AAA BBB. Rector of the University of CCC
Mr. Jan DDD. President of the EEE

Si uno sabe que no es abogado, entonces es "Bachelors" Degree pero si uno ignora los detalles al respecto, todos los equivalentes en inglés son específicos. Por lo general uso una nota del traductor:
T.N. - "Licenciado", academic title used by lawyers and persons with bachelor level college degrees in many fields.
Solucionado el problema.

Discussion
But I don't know whether to use directly Mr. or try to find an equivalent for what it'd be "licenciado" alone (with no specification on the field the person is specialized). Thanks.
