Halloween is always a terrific time for members of the legal community — especially law students — who are able to celebrate the holiday’s festivities with costumes of note. As usual, we want to see your creativity in action.
For the sixteenth year in a row, we here at Above the Law are soliciting legally themed costumes for our annual Halloween contest. We’re continually impressed with how creative lawyers and law students can be when they take their noses out of their books.
Here are some of the winning looks from the past few years of the contest: the Donald J. Trump College of Law (2016), Brett Kavanaugh’s calendar and his beer (2018), Ruth Baby Ginsburg (2020), and Warhol’s Soup Law (2023).
