  Lawyer Jokes  

Introduction, Disclaimer & Index

There is an essential nobility to the law, or this site's owner, who is a New York attorney with his law degree from Oxford University, would have nothing to do with it.

However, the excesses of some practitioners of the law, a few members of the trial bar in particular, understandably (even deservedly) make the legal profession the butt of "lawyer jokes." 

Yet many in the legal profession, including the many distinguished lawyers who are associated with Pre-Paid Legal Services, are doing something about it. Their efforts range from their work in PPL, making "Law for All" a reality, to a positive interest in promoting tort reform

In the meantime, the rest of us lawyers suffer guilt by association and just laugh at the jokes along with everyone else. 

We have presented our collection of lawyer jokes in the form of a free e-book The Definitive Ebook of Lawyer Jokes. This Ebook is available for you to download. Enjoy it on your computer and send copies to your friends. And it is FREE to anyone who subscribes to our mailing list. Scroll on down for the index of contents. 

But don't let the joke be on you! Don't let the lawyers have the last laugh! Get the inexpensive and indispensable protection of Prepaid Legal Services. Enroll Online Now.

Although most of the material in our ebook is in wide circulation, we believe it to be the best collection of lawyer jokes anywhere. There are more than 500 of them! All this material is believed to be in the public domain and unprotected by any copyright.  However, if anyone out there claims ownership, please write to the webmaster.

The law is an admirable (if sometimes sullied) creature of mankind. So let's start from the top and work on down. And remember that, if "The Law is a Ass," it is "We the People" who elect the asses that make the laws! (OK, OK - most of those asses are lawyers anyway!)

The things that lawyers know about,
Are property and land.
But why the leaves are on the trees;
And why the waves disturb the trees;
Why honey is the food of bees;
Why horses have such tender knees;
Why winters come when rivers freeze;
Why faith is more than what one sees;
And hope survives the worst disease;
And charity is more than these,
They do not understand.
H. Pepler, The Devil's Dream
