The enumerators 'should' follow the format however some men would, some wouldn't... the ones I have seen on the 1881 census noting 'deformed' was always written under occupation and said "none (deformed)" rather than " Gen Servant" or "Mason retired" so unable to work ? but the enumerator wrote what they were told by the householder, child, neighbour or what they thought they knew or saw so I would say they were not strictly following the details of the enumerators jb discription.
If represented by a Solicitor then it would also be my conclusion that the person was wealthy enough to afford legal representation and I would be off investigating him further
