You came, you saw, you voted, and one submission absolutely dominated in this year’s legally themed Halloween costume contest. Our winner ran away with 65 percent of the vote this year. Making legally themed Halloween costumes isn’t an easy feat, and this year’s submissions were quite creative. As usual, we applaud the brave souls who subjected themselves (and their children and pets) to our judgment.
And now, the moment you’ve been waiting for. Who won our annual costume contest?
It’s none other than Ruth Baby Ginsburg. What a fitting tribute to the late, great justice. Her mother said of Her Adorableness, “She’s not in law school (yet). Her grandfather is Principal Deputy General Counsel of the Air Force, so it’s in her blood.”
Legal Is Changing. And NeoSummit Is Where The Future Is Being Built.
Legal and operational leaders are gathering May 6–7 in Fort Lauderdale to confront the questions the industry hasn't answered—with a keynote from Amanda Knox setting the tone.
