humor: lawyers jokes

 

lawyers' lampoons

a man goes into a pet shop to buy a parrot. the shop owner points to three identical parrots on a perch and says, " the parrot on the left costs $500."

" why does it cost so much?" asks the man, incredulous.  the owner says, " well, the parrot knows how to do legal research."

the man then asks about the next parrot and is told that one costs a whooping $1000 because it can do everything the other parrot can do, plus it knows how to write a brief that will win any case in any court.

naturally, the increasingly startled man asks about the third parrot and is told that it costs $2000! he asks, " what can it do?"

" to be honest," the owner replies, " i have never seen it do a thing but the other two parrots call him Senior Partner."
