Decision Question
How should Engineer A present credentials in the State M expert report signature block, given that Engineer A is not licensed in State M but holds a Board-certified Diplomate in Forensic Engineering designation that presupposes PE licensure?
Focus
Engineer A's credential presentation in the State M expert report signature block — signing as 'Consultant A, Board-certified Diplomate in Forensic Engineering' while omitting the PE designation — raises the threshold question of whether that presentation was ethical given State M's licensure requirement and the engineering-presupposing nature of the Diplomate credential.
Option1
Sign the report solely as 'Consultant A' with no engineering credential designations, affirmatively disclosing to Attorney X that the Forensic Engineering Diplomate title cannot be used in State M without State M licensure
Option2
Sign the report as 'Consultant A, Board-certified Diplomate in Forensic Engineering' while omitting the PE designation, on the theory that the deliberate exclusion of 'PE' sufficiently signals non-licensure to a sophisticated legal audience
Option3
Sign the report as 'Consultant A, Board-certified Diplomate in Forensic Engineering' and include an explicit footnote or parenthetical in the signature block affirmatively disclosing that Engineer A is not licensed in State M
