Here's your
fee schedule
A lawyer
calls his client to tell him about his fee
schedule.
"Alright," the lawyer says looking through
his papers. "You owe me $1000 down and
$417.58 cents each month for the next
thirty-six months.
"What! That sounds like a car payment
schedule," retorted the client.
"Your right. It's mine."
Unreasonable
bill
A client who
felt his legal bill was too high asked his
lawyer to itemize costs. The statement
included this item:
"Was walking down the street and saw you on
the other side. Walked to the corner to
cross at the light, crossed the street and
walked quickly to catch up with you. Got
close and saw it wasn't you. -$50.00."
Replacing
lab rats with lawyers
The National
Institute of Health (NIH) announced last
week that they were going to start using
lawyers instead of rats in their
experiments. Naturally, the American Bar
Association was outraged and filed suit.
Yet, the NIH presented some very good
reasons for the switch.
1. The lab assistants were becoming very
attached to their little rats. This
emotional involvement was interfering with
the research being conducted. No such
attachment could form for a lawyer.
2. Lawyers breed faster and are in much
greater supply.
3. Lawyers are much cheaper to care for and
the humanitarian societies won't jump all
over you no matter what you're studying.
4. There are some things even a rat won't
do.
An honest
lawyer
An
independent woman started her own business.
She was shrewd and diligent, so business
kept coming in. Pretty soon she realized she
needed an in-house counsel, and so she began
interviewing young lawyers.
"As I'm sure you can understand," she
started off with one of the first
applicants, "in a business like this, our
personal integrity must be beyond question."
She leaned forward. "Mr. Peterson, are you
an 'honest' lawyer?"
"Honest?" replied the job prospect. "Let me
tell you something about honest. Why, I'm so
honest that my dad lent me fifteen thousand
dollars for my education and I paid back
every penny the minute I tried my very first
case."
"Impressive. And what sort of case was
that?"
He squirmed in his seat and admitted, "My
dad sued me for the money."
Some last
minute requests
A man woke up
in a hospital bed and called for his doctor.
He asked, "Give it to me straight. How long
have I got?" The physician replied that he
doubted that the man would survive the
night.
The man then said, "Call for my lawyer."
When the lawyer arrived, the man asked for
his physician to stand on one side of the
bed, while the lawyer stood on the other.
The man then laid back and closed his eyes.
When he remained silent for several minutes,
the physician asked what he had in mind. The
man replied "Jesus died with a thief on
either side. I just thought I'd check out
the same way."
A love for
material goods
A lawyer was
driving his big BMW down the highway,
singing to himself, "I love my BMW, I love
my BMW." Focusing on his car, not his
driving, he smashed into a tree. He
miraculously survived, but his car was
totaled. "My BMW! My BMW!" he sobbed.
A good Samaritan drove by and cried out,
"Sir, sir, you're bleeding! And my god, your
left arm is gone!"
The lawyer, horrified, screamed "My Rolex!
My Rolex!"
Brain
transplant
"How can I
ever thank you?" gushed a woman to Clarence
Darrow, after he had solved her legal
troubles.
"My dear woman," Darrow replied, "ever since
the Phoenicians invented money there has
been only one answer to that question."
Lawyer's
personal injury
A golfer
hooked his tee shot over a hill and onto the
next fairway. Walking toward his ball, he
saw a man lying on the ground, groaning with
pain.
"I'm an attorney," the wincing man said,
"and this is going to cost you $5000."
"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry," the concerned
golfer replied. "But I did yell 'fore'."
"I'll take it," the attorney said.
