Tenured (or Regular) Professor in the Field of Civil or Commercial Law
"Profesor Titular" could have different meanings depending on how positions are defined at the institution involved, but for sure this is a regular, tenured professor as opposed to a "visiting" professor or someone recently or temporarily assigned to teach such courses. I would consider that to be the safest choice.
I am not sure that I agree with María Eugenia's opinion on the absolute need to include "cátedra" (con todo respecto, la conozco personalmente y la estimo mucho). I have used "Field", but in English I think it could be omitted with no sin committed.
"Tenured (or Regular) Professor of Civil or Commercial Law" would make it OK, I think.
I also do not think it is necessary to repeat "Law" in either language, but it may be repeated in the interest of total faithfulness despite being a defect.

: Hi, Henry! In this case, "titular the la cátedra..." means Chair of the Dept. of Civil or Commercial Law. I didn't want to argue with Anita, but ages ago I researched the entire Chilean arbitration clause, first by myself and then with Carlos' help :))

Pues sí, ahora ""Profesor Titular" could have different meanings depending on how positions are defined at the institution involved"; lo malo es que no se menciona el origen y luego aunque lo supiera, no conocería el uso, es un detalle muy particular.

No estoy de acuerdo. Un profesor titular de una cátedra, es el profesor que organiza el syllabus entre otras cosas, y es el más importante dentro del curso. No necesariamente es el que da el curso. No estoy nada de acuerdo con tu apreciación, sorry.

I suggest you search the Kudoz Gloss for "cátedra". Here's an example: http://www.proz.com/kudoz/156576
