Perhaps being connected to everyone at all times isn't everything it's cracked up to be. On one hand, it's fun to know that the person you hate in high school is suffering in a career in Miami's premiere dinner theatre, but on the other, Facebook is apparently cited over and over in divorce cases.

Kate Walsh's new NBC series has recently come under fire for its lumbering and very off-the-mark depiction of a sassy, questionably clad, highly unethical female judge. Two weeks after the show debuted on Oct. 2, Deborah Baker, president of the Miami-Dade Chapter of the Florida Association for Women Lawyers, sent a …

Ah, work-life balance. Such a beautiful idea. And all too often, such a desert mirage taunting travelers dying of thirst. For instance! A Georgia judge recently informed an attorney that her fancy newfangled European "maternity leave" was insufficient reason enough to postpone a hearing for three weeks.

Here is your surreal legal fight of the day: "Virtual Marilyn LLC," a company which owns " a computer-generated virtual actress adopting the persona of Marilyn Monroe," is suing The Estate of Marilyn Monroe, essentially demanding they shove off and quit interfering with their hologram.

California attorney Svitlana Sangary advertises her services on a website plastered with pictures of herself smiling with her celebrity friends. Only she was never actually in the same place as her celebrity friends; all of the photos are 'shopped. Expertly, I might add.

Question to all the lady lawyers out there (sorry, I like the alliteration): How often do your superiors lecture you on your professional dress? Judging by all these tips we get about memos that lecture women on appropriate office wear, it's all the damn time.

The breakup of a small law firm in Texas has revealed some gross and amazing details and none of it is pretty.

Do you need some legal advice, are 100 years old, and wish that women would fucking shut their stupid hag mouths for once? WELL, GREAT NEWS. The law firm of The Edelsteins, Faegenburg & Brown LLP might be right up your alley.

Most women in any business field should really be presenting themselves according to the The Woman's Dress for Success Guide, but since it's hard to get copies of that opus, the law firm of Clifford Chance has helpfully prepared a five-page document entitled "Presentation Tips for Women" that includes helpful…

Both specific lawyers and lawyers in general make it into this super cut of rappers and their Jewish lawyers. Now I kinda want to see a bunch of Jewish lawyers rapping about their rapper clients. Or, would they rap? Maybe they would orate? Either way, it could be big.

People joke about all the time about how soulless and awful lawyers are, but sometimes they really are soulless and awful. Case in point: a Minnesota attorney recently faced some serious disciplinary action when it was discovered that he’d taken a page out of Bluth family attorney Barry Zuckerhorn’s lawyerbook and…

35-22-30. Measurements of an old-school pinup girl, sure. But my point in raising those numbers is a different one. These numbers can actually be used to highlight the special challenges that most women, in particular those who have or want families, face in Biglaw (i.e., very large firms that pay top salaries). I…

There are divorce lawyers and then there are divorce lawyers, the latter and emphasized of which hang out in super secret clubhouses, keep stashes of Sports Illustrated under the floorboards, and assure all clients that, just as soon as they learn the secret handshake, all the secrets of divorce court prejudices will…

If you're planning a trip to the cinema this weekend in Dresden (and, really, why wouldn't you be?), odds are you'll have to sit through this commercial from the firm Hannig, Ahrendt & Partners, in which a chainsaw-wielding woman emerges from a building covered with blood. As she walks briskly away from what is most…

Lawyers, right? Lawyers are awful. Even people who don't know any lawyers and just read email forwards all day know this. Lawyers are know-it-all ambulance chaser opportunists who care about winning more than justice (half kidding; my brother just graduated from law school and some of my very dearest friends are…

A Mad Men-esque guide geared towards summer associates at law firms is making waves for advising ladies to wear skirts to appeal to men, makeup to look healthy and competent, and heels to appear more powerful. Ugh. But maybe it's a tad unrealistic to tell women otherwise.

Superfeminist Gloria Allred has never met a video camera she didn't want to sternly lecture about sexual harassment, and this week's "Too Sexy for Work" press conference was no exception — she theatrically walked in with her arm around the waist of her newest client/star Laren Odes like Odes had just gotten her…
