@writeaway should you be wrongly accused of driving through a red light while on vacation in a country where you don't understand a word of the local language, you would be very happy to have legal documents related to your case translated using the "literal take method", shurely? THAT would be professional, wouldn't it?

@pooja_chic

first search would suggest that "mandataire habituel" as someone's professional title refers to someone who "is in the habit" of representing clients in a particular court/type of courts - which is more or less what you have also found ("appearing regularly before"); but if you are not sure of the context, you could get it horribly wrong - happens only occasionally, but you never know when it could happen.

It relates to arbitration, the letter is registered one with Court of Appeal and Bar and mandataire habituel, avocats associes, en collaboration avec.. written in column

There is not much, it is just a letter from one consultant (law firm) to another .

knowing what is the whole text about and the whole sentence from which this is taken would help avoiding pointless guessing.

I don't think there is enough context-who is this mandataire referred to?
