The answer of Vicki Santamaria   was rated best

Dear Mr. Risso: (or Dear Sir:)

My comment:

This is the translation of a letter to Mr. Risso, not a letter to him. So it doesn't matter what he is used to being called in Spanish. What matters is the way a letter would be addressed to an English-speaking lawyer. The salutation is: Dear Mr. Risso. In the address, you put: Mr. John (or whatever is first name is) Risso, Attorney-at-Law; or John Risso, Esq.

My references:

This is straight from Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, 10th edition.

The asker's comment:

Thanks this letter is to be written and sent in English, so I do think i should address it to Dear Mr. Risso, Attorney-at-Law.

Thanks for your help
