LEGAL DISCLAIMER Any resemblance to lawyers Living or dead, Is purely intentional.

IF ALL THE LAWYERS were laid end to end they wouldn't reach a conclusion.

THE DIFFERENCE What is the difference Between a dead snake And a dead lawyer On the road? (Skid marks Lead up to the snake).
***
DIAGNOSIS Overheard at the scene of an auto accident: "Just a minute I want to call my lawyer And see how badly I'm hurt!"

OBSCENE Once upon a time, in the twenty-first century there lived a very busy businessman. In order to save time, he commissioned a genetic scientist to make a clone of himself. At first the clone worked out well. The clone attended less important meetings and made low-level decisions which saved the businessman time. However, something went wrong and the clone went bad—cursing, making bad decisions, etc. When he could take it no more, the businessman pushed the clone out of a fifty story window. The police were in a quandary. They could not charge him with murder. How can you murder yourself and still be alive? Finally, the district attorney settled with this charge: "We'll charge him with making an obscene clone fall."

SIC 'EM A drunken driver hit two pedestrians Knocking one into a field And the other through his windshield. Since he was worried he hired a slick, high-priced lawyer who had the DA on his payoff list. "Don't worry," comforted the lawyer, "We'll get one for breaking and entering and the other for leaving the scene of an accident!"
***
JUSTICE A very rich dude got mad at his business associate who had embezzled a million dollars. He shot him 37 times in the back, weighted him down with concrete blocks and threw him in the river. He hired a slick, high-priced lawyer, who bought off the sheriff, jury and judge. The jury and judge agreed with the sheriff's testimony: "This is the worst case of suicide we've ever had in Hazzard County!"
***
OF GREAT VALUE Contrary to popular opinion, we have the best justice system money can buy.
***
LAWYER BASHING Seriously, there are many good lawyers. I personally know some who are honest, kind and helpful. Thanks and a tip o' the hat to lawyers who put up with us and are able to laugh at themselves.

SECOND LEGAL DISCLAIMER The Stories are all true. Only the facts have been changed to protect the guilty.
