Lawyer Dresses As Hot Dog For Halloween Deposition, Gets Burned
A lawyerly Halloween fail that'll make you LOL.
When Halloween falls during the business week, it makes it even more difficult for lawyers to get into the holiday spirit. After all, how are you supposed to get your job done when you’re wearing a costume? Even a legally themed costume would be pushing it at some firms. Other firms, however, take themselves a little less seriously, and encourage attorneys to deck themselves out for Halloween. But with that bit of joy can come some pretty embarrassing — and let’s face it, hilarious — moments.
Take, for example, a story that was recently shared on Twitter by Matt Margolis, the head of community at Lawtrades. His awesome(ly embarrassing) Halloween story happened when he was still working at a firm. Check it out:
Hot diggity dog! His costume didn’t cut the mustard for the depo, but let’s be frank, it made for a great story he’ll be able to relish in for years to come.
