peer agreement (net): +1
peer agreement (net): +1What country? Explanation: It would be very useful to know what country this would be for. If Canadian, and the "PC" is at the end of a person's name, then "Privy Council" (the person is or was a member or Parliament). If in the US, and the "PC" is at the end of a firm's name, then **possibly* "Professional Corporation". |

Practicing Council? Explanation: Having asked around some contacts in the US, the consensus seems to be towards 'Practicing Council' in the context of Lawyers. I noticed that some US Lawyers advertise with PA (Practicing Attourney) or even both PA and PC. This is all unconfirmed though, hard as I have tried I cannot seem to find any written confirmation from any authoritive source for what appears to be such a common acronym in this field. Maybe try sending an email to one of these lawyers with PC after their name and ask them what exactly it means. |
