Best lawyer joke

Two lawyers had been stranded on a desert island for several months. The only thing on the island was a tall coconut tree that provided them their only food. Each day one of the lawyers would climb to the top to see if he could spot a rescue boat coming...One day the lawyer yelled down from the tree, "WOW, I just can't believe my eyes. There is a woman out there floating in our direction."

The lawyer on the ground was most skeptical and said, "You're hallucinating, you've finally lost your mind. "But within a few minutes, up on the beach floated a stunningly beautiful woman, face up, totally naked, unconscious, without even so much a ring or earrings on her person. The two lawyers went down to the water, dragged her up on the beach and discovered, yes, she was alive, warm and breathing.

One said to the other, "You know, we've been on this God-forsaken island for months now without a woman. It's been such a long, long time...So... Do you think we should...well...You know... Screw her?"

"Out of WHAT?" asked the other lawyer.

"During the mid-1980s dairy farmers decided there was too much cheap milk at the supermarket. So the government bought and slaughtered 1.6 million cows. How come the government never does anything like this with lawyers?"

NEVER, EVER book a hunt with BLAIR WORLDWIDE HUNTING or JEFF BLAIR.

I have come to understand that in hunting, the goal is not the goal but the process.

Definition of a tragedy, a bus load of lawyers going over a cliff,with one seat empty. Wink

An old guy, realizing the end is near, goes to his lawyer and tells him he's decided to take all his money with him to the grave and he wants it placed in his coffin. sure enough, the lawyer shows at the funeral and just before they close the lid on the coffin, throws in a check. Big Grin

We all bitch about lawyers…until we need one.

That said, here is one of my favs:

A gent walks into a bar, orders a shot of whiskey, gulps it down, slams the empty glass on the bar and yells out, "All lawyers are assholes"

An unseen voice replied, "Shut the hell up. That's not right!"

The fella answers, "Why, are you a lawyer?"

The unseen voice says, "No, I'm an asshole."

Yeah the original way I heard it of course was Jew lawyers Not much changes. In relation to P.J. O'rourke's statement,a bit of truism here concerning our current wild hog problem. When Pres. Hoover was doing no grow for $$$ to the farmers he was also instrumental in imposing the edict that to balance the livestock budget that they kill off X amount of hogs.The pig farmers in East Tx. pretty much told them what they could do to themselves+ then turned them loose. Now here we are.


Never mistake motion for action.

Of course.

Q: What's the difference between a good lawyer and a bad lawyer?
A: A bad lawyer makes your case drag on for years. A good lawyer makes it last even longer.

Ah, lawyer jokes. We're easy targets and there are some bad ones out there. But most of us went into this profession to help people. That said, it's getting to be a harder way to make a living. I'm glad I'm at the end of my career; I fear for the young lawyers we are hiring.

There's an old saying: In a really small town one lawyer would starve, but two could each make a pretty good living.

A man is flying in a hot air balloon when he realizes he is lost. He reduces his altitude and spots a man in a field below. He lowers the balloon toward the man and shouts to him, “Excuse me, can you help me? I am late to meet a friend, but I don’t know where I am.”

The man below says, “I’m happy to help. You are in a hot air balloon, hovering approximately 30 feet above this field. You are between 40 and 42 degrees N. latitude, and between 58 and 60 degrees W. longitude.”

After a brief pause, the balloonist declares: “You must be a lawyer.”

“I am” replies the man. “How did you know?”

“Well,” says the balloonist, “everything you have told me I am sure is technically correct, but I have no idea what to make of your information, and the fact is I am still lost.”

The man below responds, “Indeed. And you … You must be a client.”

“Why, yes, I am,” replies the balloonist, “how in the world did you know?”

“Well,” says the man, “you don’t know where you are, or where you are going. You have made a promise which you have no idea how to keep, and you expect me to solve your problem. The fact is you are in the exact same position you were in before we met, but now it is somehow my fault.”

This one's my favorite.

If you think lawyer jokes are funny, then the next time you're accused of something, call a comedian. Eeker

A guy phones a law office and says: "I want to speak to my lawyer."

The receptionist replies "I'm sorry but he died last week."

The next day he phones again and asks the same question. The receptionist replies "I told you yesterday, he died last week."

The next day the guy calls again and asks to speak to his lawyer. By this time the receptionist is getting a little annoyed and says "I keep telling you that your lawyer died last week. Why do you keep calling?"

The guy says, "Because I just love hearing you say that."
