No one loves lawyer jokes
more than actual lawyers.
We positively revel in how much
people hate and misunderstand us.
Yup, that's just how we roll!

And remember,
judges are lawyers too!
I dedicate this post to The Blog Tech, who is
the son of blogging buddy Joyce (Octoberfarm).
He is currently in law school, so I'm sure
he's familiar with this classic summary
of that experience --
"In First Year Law, they scare you to death;
in Second Year Law, they work you to death; and
in Third Year Law, they bore you to death."
Have fun and enjoy the ride!
I love a lawyer who can laugh at lawyer jokes!
ReplyDeleteHahaha
ReplyDeleteThe 'did I go to Law School for this?' part is spot on. I have several friends who are lawyers and they love lawyer jokes. Really.
The law school creation myth one deserves its own t-shirt.
XOXO
haha...i was reading this thinking i would forward it to TBT! thanks so much. i'm sure he will get a kick out of this!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was in law school, people were litigating if potbellied pigs could be kept as household pets in residential areas. In moments of despair I remind myself that "at least I didn't end up litigating pig cases".
ReplyDeleteThese are hilarious!
ReplyDeleteOh, I swear ... each and every day, all day!!
ReplyDeleteThese are all great and made me chuckle. A friend of mine once sent me a meme that said he uses the law firm of Dewey Suem and Howe.
ReplyDelete@ Mistress Maddie -- My favourite law firm is Sue, Grabbit & Run.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! Always loved the one about the guy who argued he served his death sentence.

My favorite lawyer: Better Call Saul.
ReplyDeletethe Ol'Buzzard
The one I remember is Dewey, Cheatum, and Howe.
ReplyDelete@ Mike -- Oh yeah, that's a good one too!
ReplyDeleteHello Debra, People are quick enough to make jokes about lawyers--until they need one!

That parrot visitation one made me laugh! Well, they all did. It's just so easy to take cheap shots at lawyers. And, curiously satisfying! My former neighbor was a judge and the phrase 'sober as a judge' absolutely NEVER applied to him!
ReplyDeleteHa ha good ones.
ReplyDeleteThe only lawyer joke I can recall at the moment is: "What do you call a thousand lawyers chained together at the bottom of a lake? A good start!"..... Thanks for the LOLs with my morning coffee!
ReplyDeleteHa - love that thing about the parrot.
ReplyDeleteIm stealing the every fucking day one.
ReplyDeleteGood move with the "buck-buck-bucks" response!4
ReplyDeleteQ: What do you call 100 lawyers at the bottom of the ocean?
A: A good start.
Sorry, you likely heard that too many times. I think the number is much bigger, but I kept it lower because you're a very good one.
I’ve known honest lawyers. I’ve known lawyers those “3” jokes were written about.
ReplyDeleteQ: What does a lawyer get when you give him Viagra?
A: Taller.
Now, now, now. Not all lawyers are bad. There are a few ethical ones. There's you...ummm....well, there's you!
ReplyDeleteYou are our favorite lawyer!
Divorce lawyer: Ditcher, Quick, and Hyde
ReplyDeleteHow many lawyers to grease a combine? One if you run him through slowly.
@ Moving With Mitchell -- That viagra one is new to me!
ReplyDelete@ The Blog Fodder -- Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear! *snort*
ReplyDeleteHahaha! Too funny!
ReplyDeleteThe parrot one made me laugh out loud!
ReplyDeleteI was accepted to law school but didn't go. The entrance exam bored me, and I had the foresight to think that the curriculum might do the same.
ReplyDeleteYou mean they're not all like Perry Mason?
ReplyDeleteI had to hire a lawyer for my divorce with Daisy. Not fun and very expensive
ReplyDeleteThe hallmark sign is perfect/priceless! I love gnomes. I guess I will have to get mine out this year and dust them off.. The kitty judge is adorable if not a bit scary. Enjoy your weekend.
ReplyDeleteLaw humor is classic! I love the prisoner who died and came back. A good lawyer could get him out of prison for serving a life sentence.
ReplyDeleteHmmm - Granddaughter #2 will be starting law school in the fall 2022. I'll have to pass on the expectations for law school, years 1, 2, 3.
ReplyDeleteAll very funny ones. My favourite was about the judge.
ReplyDeletePoking at oneself is the best therapy ever. :) These are Golden!
ReplyDeletehaha i agree on that layers are misunderstood by people like so many other professions though in my personal opinion good and bad are everywhere and in every profession :)
ReplyDeletehugs and blessings!
I have to show these to my niece. She's following her dad's footsteps and gone off to law school.
ReplyDeleteGood ones, especially Matthew Mcconaughey. I worked in law firms all my life so yes, I know.
ReplyDeleteExcellent!!! LOL! Big Hugs!
