The words are: Cavaliere Avvocato
Yes he was a lawyer and possibly had a knighthood. He would have been addressed as "Sir".
Edit to add: He would have been addressed as either Cavaliere or Sir.

It appears to be "Cavaliere Avvocato"
Avvocato is a lawyer.
Cavaliere is an honor (like a knighting) that was bestowed on this man for service (to country, industry, etc.)
The literal translation of Cavaliere is horseman.
