Lawyers worldwide get a lot of grief for being lawyers. Jokes are made about them, and they consistently rank as one of the least respected professions on the planet* (ranked just above advertisers and car salespeople).
Yet, when regular people (or "Luggles," non-lawyer folk) need help writing a will, running a business, or avoiding jail time, to whom do they flock? Lawyers! That's right. This love/hate relationship too often tilts to the hate side of the ledger. And that needs to stop.
The best part of INTERNATIONAL BE KIND TO LAWYERS DAY is that you judge precisely how much you participate. Here is a brief list of ideas to get your legal kindness flowing.
1. Take your favorite lawyer to breakfast or lunch (make sure it's not billable!).
2. Send your lawyer a "just because" greeting card.
3. Send him/her flowers, a fruit basket, or a cookie bouquet.
4. Switch your ringtone to the "dah-dah" sound from NBC's "Law & Order."
5. Abstain from telling lawyer jokes for 24 hours. (You can do it!)
