A very successful lawyer parked his brand-new Lexus in front of his office, ready to show it off to his colleagues. As he got out, a truck passed too closely and completely tore off the door on the driver's side.

The lawyer immediately grabbed his cell phone, dialed 911, and within minutes a policeman pulled up. Before the officer had a chance to ask any questions, the lawyer started screaming hysterically that his Lexus, which he had just picked up the day before, was now completely ruined and would never be the same, no matter what the body shop did to it.

When the lawyer finally wound down from his ranting and raving, the officer shook his head in disgust and disbelief.

"I can't believe how materialistic you lawyers are," he said. "You are so focused on your possessions that you don't notice anything else."

"How can you say such a thing?" asked the lawyer.

The cop replied, "Don't you know that your left arm is missing from the elbow down? It must have been torn off when the truck hit you."

"My God!" screamed the lawyer. "Where's my Rolex?"

Glad you enjoyed that one Doc! :o Here's another -

A lawyer received his monthly retainer from his client and called immediately to tell him that the check he'd been given was short for $500.

"This is five hundred dollars less than we have agreed on," he said.

"I know," the client said. "But last month I overpaid you five hundred, and you never complained."

"Well, I don't mind an occasional mistake. But when it becomes a habit, I feel I have to call it to your attention." The lawyer replied.

:D

Let me add a real joke. A few years ago I had to sue a company in Hamburg/Germany for nonpayment of abt. (in Baht) 850,000.

Hourly fee: 6250 (Euro 125.00)

Judging from the bills, got a feeling my lawyer was reading a lot and very slowly.

Two months later I was in Hamburg, called the lawyer, with whom I had become quite friendly over the phone disussions from Bangkok. He invited me to come over for coffee.

Final invoice: "1/2 hour closing discussion" Euro 62.50 (Baht 3125)

Expensive coffee and a good lawyers' joke, I feel. :o
