Lawyer Joke of the Day
 |
No, it's about the stereotype of who/what a lawyer is.
According to the stereotype, Lawyers:
a) manage to get rich, but without any 'real' effort behind it.
b) are, effectively, forced to be dishonest by their profession.
c) are generally not seen as benefiting their fellow man in the same way that, say, a doctor does.

Did you hear about the terrorists who took a whole courtroom full of lawyers hostage?
They threatened to release one every hour until their demands were met.

The only difference between a dead skunk lying in the road and a dead lawyer lying in the road is that there are skid marks around the skunk.
Never argue with idiots, they'll just bring you down to their level and beat you with their experience.
What's the difference between a catfish and a lawyer?
One's a scum-sucking bottom dweller.
The other's a fish.

An attorney was sitting in his office late one night, when Satan
appeared before him. The Devil told the lawyer, "I have a
proposition for you. You can win every case you try, for the
rest of your life. Your clients will adore you, your colleagues
will stand in awe of you, and you will make embarrassing sums of
money. All I want in exchange is your soul, your wife's soul,
your children's souls, the souls of your parents, grandparents,
and parents-in-law, and the souls of all your friends and law
partners." The lawyer thought about this for a moment, then
asked, "So, what's the catch?"

What's the difference between a good lawyer and a great lawyer?
A good lawyer knows the law. A great lawyer knows the judge.

A new client had just come in to see a famous lawyer.
"Can you tell me how much you charge?", said the client.
"Of course", the lawyer replied, "I charge $200 to answer three questions!"
"Well that's a bit steep, isn't it?"
"Yes it is", said the lawyer, "And what's your third question?"
