French term
agissant de tous les droits et prérogative de la profession
French to English
Law/Patents
Law (general)
Legal notice confirming details of a person who has died.
This is one of several stamps:
"LE BÂTONNIER DE L'ORDRE DES AVOCATS A LA COUR DE AAA SOUSSIGNÉ CERTIFIE CONFORME LA SIGNATURE/APOSÉE
CI-CONTRE
MAÎTRE BBB
AVOCAT PRÈS LADITE COUR ET AGISSANT DE TOUS LES DROITS ET PRÉROGATIVE DE LA PROFESSION
PARIS, LE ..."
I suppose it just means "acting with all the rights... ", but I've never seen this agir de construction.

: It could probably be expressed a bit more concisely (maybe "exercising my professional rights", since a prerogative is a right), but this is the correct meaning.

acting with all professional rights and privilege
It's IMO cognate with s'agir de 'acting' non-reflexively and grammatically not agissant 'avec'. Otherwise, I agree with Tony M's idea of 'by virtue of' > pursuant to.

It is the approx. Bar Council Chairman confirming the signature of Counsel who is a member of the Bar Assoc. and who, not the Chairman, who is acting as such, with all rights and sing. Prerogative and who is advertsing or confirming the death.
Possibly a Norman-French construction that, on the Channel Islands until 1974 when conveyances of land had been written bilingually NOR FRE > mediaeval ENG would have been translated literally as 'acting of or on all the rights and prerogative of the porofession'.

: The others aren't wrong, but I think this answer sounds less like a translation and more like something that would actually be seen or heard in the English-speaking world. // Agreed, that makes sense.

Thanks, Michael. I am afraid the other answers are slightly flawd by pluralis/zing 'prérogative'- it's in the singular for a specific reason of LPP - legal professional *privilege* that is a one-off, plus 'acting by' - in the UK - means *represented by*

Grazzi, grazie, merci and thanks - also for confirming the idiosyncratic singular of prerogative.

acting by all rights and prerogatives of the profession
Being a stamp, better to be concise and law-coded
Discussion
Here, perhaps not so much 'with' as 'by virtue of' or something along those lines?
