English to Spanish Law/Patents Law (general) Attorney's credentials
I'm translating a legal document for an attorney. At the end of the letter she signs the document as:

Jane Doe
Attorney at Law
mm/mm

In a previous document she used the following signature:

Jane Doe
Attorney at Law
mjm/dl

which I translated as: Máster en Administración de Justicia y Doctora en Derecho. However, I cannot find anything about mm/mm.

Thank you for your help.

Hi Taña, thank you for this insight. Looks like I completely misunderstood those initials in the last document.

I can't find my source, but I recall having trouble deciphering the meaning of the previous, mjm/dl initials. I recall going to her LinkedIn page and seeing her credentials and that took me the wrong rabbit hole.

I think Juan Gil is correct in his assessment below. Thanks for your help!
Taña Dalglish Apr 5, 2022:
@ Juan I don't understand. Where does is say "Máster en Administración de Justicia y Doctora en Derecho"? "Your comment is, "Which I translated as ...". Are you implying that "mjm/mm" means the above? IMO, mm/mm are the Attorney's initials and the typist. Likewise for "mjm/dl", except the same Attorney may have included her middle initial and the second document was prepared by a different typist. That is what I think.
