Laying it on Lawyers

Lawyer:  “Did you serve your debtor with the injunction I gave you?”
Client: “Yes.”
Lawyer:  “What did he have to say?”
Client: “He told me to go to the devil.”
Lawyer: “Then what did you do?”
Client.: “I came to you.”



Why does a horse snicker hauling a lawyer away?”  -Carl Sandburg


The witness finished, the plaintiff’s lawyer began,
”What is your business?’
”I am an entertainer in a café.”
”Don’t you feel that is it is a very lonely job?”
“Possibly,” he answered. “In comparison to my father, it is a job that I can be proud of.” “What was your father?” 
“A lawyer.”
