Two male attorneys are walking down the street. Coming towards them is a stunningly beautiful woman.

After she passes them, one lawyer says to the other, “Boy, I'd love to screw her!”

The other lawyer replies, “Out of what?”


At the height of a political corruption trial, the prosecuting attorney attacked a witness. “Isn't it true,” he bellowed, “that you accepted five thousand dollars to compromise this case?”

The witness stared out the window, as though he hadn't heard the question.

“Isn't it true that you accepted five thousand dollars to compromise this case?” the lawyer repeated loudly.

The witness still did not respond.

Finally, the judge leaned over and said, “Sir, please answer the question.”

“Oh,” the startled witness said, “I thought he was talking to you.”


A defendant was on trial for murder. There was very strong evidence indicating guilt, but no corpse had been found. In the defense's closing statement the lawyer, knowing that his client would probably be convicted, decided to try a trick.

"Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I have a surprise for you all," the lawyer said as he looked at his watch. "Within one minute, the person presumed dead in this case will walk into this courtroom!"

He looked toward the courtroom door. The jurors, somewhat stunned, all looked, eagerly. A minute passed. Nothing happened.

Finally, the lawyer said, "Actually, I made up the previous statement. But you all looked on with anticipation. I therefore put it to you that there is reasonable doubt in this case as to whether anyone was killed and insist that you return a verdict of not guilty."

With that, the jury retired to deliberate. But after only a few minutes, they came back and pronounced a verdict of guilty.

"But how?" the lawyer asked. "You must have had some doubt. I saw all of you stare at the door."

"Oh, yes," the jury foreman replied. "We all looked - but your client didn't!"


Two physicians board a flight out of Seattle. One sits in the window seat, the other in the middle seat. Just before take-off, an attorney sits in the seat by the aisle. The lawyer kicks off his shoes, wiggles his toes, and starts to settle in, when the physician in the window seat says, “I think I’ll get up and get a coke.”

“No problem,” says the attorney, “I’m by the aisle. I’ll get it for you.”

While he’s gone, one of the physicians picks up the attorney’s shoe and spits in it. When he returns with the coke, the other physician says, “That looks good, I think I’ll have one too.”

Again, the attorney obligingly fetches the drink. While he’s gone, the other physician picks up the other shoe and spits in it.

The lawyer comes back and they all sit back and enjoy the flight. As the plane is landing, however, the attorney slips his feet into his shoes and realizes immediately what has happened.

“How long must this go on?” he asks the physicians. “This fighting between our professions? This hatred? This animosity? This spitting in shoes and pissing in cokes?”
