Description
It's no secret that Americans are fascinated by lawyers and the legal system. From the media obsession with hot-button trials to the non-stop sales of John Grisham's novels, to the popularity of such television shows as Ally McBeal and The Practice, our society continually demonstrates a boundless interest in the nitty-gritty dealings, intrigues, idiocies, and (sometimes) idealism that exists on both sides of the bar.Gathered from a wide variety of attorneys and legal authorities, these jaw-dropping, real-life stories from the battlefields of law offer up a hilarious gallery of quirky judges, flabbergasted lawyers, and defendants with wonderfully idiosyncratic opinions on crime and punishment. Funny, revealing, and free of case precedents, Shark Tales is the perfect gift for law school-bound college graduates, men and women on the brink of taking arduous bar exams, practicing lawyers, and ordinary folk who can't resist a lawyer joke or two to brighten the day. - from Amzon
