Sr., Lic.
It has no specific equivalent, as a courtesty title use "Sr.".
However, it is sometimes used in the US in addressing attorneys, in which case (if you are positive the person is an attorney) you can use "Lic.", which is appropriate in some countries including Mexico, but not all (some use "Dr." for attorneys).

Sr. o Sr Don
Forma muy formal y poca usada ahora. Simplemente significa Mr ahora. Si usan Mr y Esq. optaría por Sr Don.

[Sigue el Larousse: El título \"esquire\" se emplea en lugar de Mister (Mr.) y siempre se pone detrás del nombre y apellido.]
De todos modos, los colegas tienen razón, según cómo podría tratarse de un abogado.

Titular
En Bancos en UK es típico encontrar El nombre de la persona seguido de Esq que significa el titular de la cuenta, por oposición a la otra persona que pudiese tener su firma reconocida.
Ej: Yo soy J C Alamo Esq.(Titular de la cuenta) pero mi mujer tiene su firma reconocida y puede realizar algunas operaciones.

Please understand...
Lic. or Licenciado DOES NOT mean a person is an Attorney. In some countries it does not even mean that a person holds a University Degree!
In Mexico, one may be a Licenciado or an Undergraduate Degree Holder of various Fields, even Math, Marketing or Psychology!
In Ecuador a Licenciado may just be someone with some College education, but with no Degree!
I don't care about the Kudoz points, but please be aware, that one may in fact be a Licenciado en Derecho or a Licenciado en Ciencias Juridicas and may very well be an Attorney, but it is NOT a rule.
For this reason, a lot of attorneys wish to call themselves Abogado Juan Garcia... or Juan Garcia, Abogado...
