What does it matter? The issue is simple - you are a self confessed pedant. So be it. MB was accurate, you dislike that fact. (And yes, a Juris Doctorate IS a Doctorate, and an LLM is a POST doctoral degree in the legal community.) What I do for a living, or not, is not the issue here.
“What does it matter?”
Well it matters because you are telling us what is true and what is not true.
So you’re not a lawyer. That’s fine. I despise lawyers.
I’ve never heard any lawyer refer to themselves as having a “doctorate”. In every single case, they say “I have a law degree.” A JD is a professional degree and not a doctorate as most (the few being you and another poster so far) would think of it.
My point, again, is that she leaves her open to the charge of resume padding. Why? Just refer to it at a “post-graduate” degree.
