The professional doctorate in law is called a Juris Doctor (J.D.). The use of the title doctor has not (yet) caught on, except in an academic setting. The J.D. is similar to the D.D.S. and D.M.D. , in that the professional doctorate can be followed by a master's degree.

A postdoctoral degree is a degree earned after obtaining a doctorate where the doctorate is a prerequisite necessary to pursue the degree. This is seen primarily with professional doctorates. For example, most dentists in the U.S. have a DDS degree, which stands for doctor of dental surgery. It is a professional doctorate, but there are at least two available postdoctoral degrees including a Ph.D., which is a research doctorate. Another example is in law. Attorneys in the U.S. graduate law school with a Juris Doctorate, or JD. There are two available postdoctoral degrees. One is the LLM, and the second is the JSD (or SJD). The SJD is the equivalent of a Ph.D. Put simply, sometimes a 'professional' doctorate is a prerequisite for obtaining a second 'research' doctorate.
