All through law school, law students live in this fantasy world that is half-nightmare, half-dream. You know the one. It’s the one where you pull 80-hour weeks for six years running until the gods descend from Mount Olympus and bestow a partnership on you. We’re all pretty sure that we can tough out those 80-hour…
The Most Ridiculous Lawyer Billboards
Now, we’re not talking about those ones where a dude glowers over the freeway dressed in a $150 suit with a dark dress shirt like he’s Regis Philbin circa 1998. Those things are a dime a dozen. These billboards go the extra mile (Pun totally intended. Sue us.) to make lawyers look absurd. 1. The Super…
Top Five Things You Are Doing To Avoid Studying For Finals
You know the drill. It’s finals time, and when you’re not wallowing in regret and self-loathing, you’re avoiding studying. Not in cool fun ways like going out to dinner or seeing a movie, but more in pathetic home-bound ways where you tell yourself that any moment now, you’ll start studying. For sure. Promise. Right after…
3 Ways To Stay Awake During Your Bar Prep Class
As your bar prep course drags on, you are likely finding it harder and harder to stay awake. So weird that hours of lectures on the UCC aren’t scintillating enough to keep you fully engaged, right?

‘Excuseman’ Probably Shouldn’t Have Stolen From Clients To Support His Bad YouTube Video Habit
You know that here at Bitter Lawyer we love us some attorney-related videos. We dig the terribawesome commercials as much as we adore the inexplicable song parodies.

Your Very Bitter Lawyer Gift Guide
‘Tis the season, to buy all sorts of crap for the people you love the most. Or want to suck up to in case they’ll throw some business your way next year. Or so we hear. Working in our pajamas has not been conducive to that style of networking. Anywho, because we’re super helpful, we…
National ‘Love A Lawyer Day’ Is the Single Dumbest Thing We’ve Ever Heard Of
Obviously, making fun of our own profession is pretty much our brand identity, so we’re totally thick-skinned about people who are not lawyers making fun of us too. Turns out that some people aren’t nearly as resilient as we are, however, so someone at an organization we’ve never heard of – the American Lawyers Public Image…
Lawyers, You Really Shouldn’t Take This Case
So you have a potential client that got dinged with a DUI charge. No big deal, right? Those things happen all the time. Probably a way to get her out from under the thing — breathalyzer test protocols weren’t followed, she was actually on Benadryl, whatever. Oh, except for the part where she Periscoped the…
Best Judge or BESTEST Judge?
We don’t even know where to start with this Ohio judge, Stephen Edwin Weithman. His misconduct is so over-the-top, so absurd, that it just might be performance art.
