ATL Poll Results: The Trial Lawyers Cartoon

ATL poll results Jim Herrick cartoon plaintiffs lawyers attorneys Above the Law.jpgRemember that editorial cartoon from “Bench & Bar,” the journal of the Kentucky Bar Association? Some lawyers objected to the cartoon as offensive and inappropriate for the Association’s journal.

We viewed it as non-offensive, but only moderately humorous (capable of inducing a chuckle, but not a belly laugh). You seem to agree, according to the poll results shown at right.

We’re pleased by these results. Delicate sensibilities can be a liability for lawyers — and blog readers, too.

Some additional thoughts on the cartoon from Walter Olson, with whom we recently had lunch, are available here.

Can you please do a poll which asks of the L2L personae want to be in biglaw or if the act is just a cruel way of mocking biglaw lawyers?

I'm actually motivated by a deep self-hatred. Can you blame me?
