Mr
you're a prof. when you have a university chair, you're B.A. when your Italian "dott" and you're LL.B when you're a lwayer. the latter two come after your name, not before. hence it's Mr (or Mrs, depending on the case, though probable here you would have an .ssa or two).

lawyer and professor
Mr Mario Maretti, lawyer and professor.
The gentleman is a professor (university teacher, high school teacher? in Italy), graduate ("dottore") and lawyer (Avvocato); he's not necessarily a teacher of law, nor a practising lawyer.
I little more context would help us to get the right wording. :-)

Okay, so how about "Mario Maretti, university professor and law graduate", if the information really has to be worded this way at this point in your text and you have no margin for flexible rewording.

Professor lawyer,Ph.D.
to be a professor you need to hold a Ph. D, that corresponds to the doctor in science degree,which is more than a simple "doctor " with reference to your status--you may be a physician ,a lawyer when the simple doctor term is added to your title

This is all I have, without any other context
