There are two kinds of lawyers, those who know the law and
those who know the judge.
Lawyer gets a hot shoddy in Hell
A man died and was taken to his place of eternal torment by
the devil. As he passed sulfurous pits and shrieking sinners, he saw a man
he recognized as a lawyer snuggling up to a beautiful woman.
"That's unfair !" he cried. "I have to roast for all eternity, and that
lawyer gets to spend it with a beautiful woman."
"Shut up!" barked the devil, jabbing him with his pitchfork. "Who are you to
question that woman's punishment?"
Contingent fee
When asked, "What is a contingent fee?" a lawyer answered, "A contingent fee
to a lawyer means, if I don't win your suit, I get nothing. If I do win it,
you get nothing."
