Briefly: Haikus for the Jaded Lawyer

They say "the law is a jealous mistress." They forgot to mention she's also a micromanager.

Briefly: Haikus for the Jaded Lawyer is a brutally honest, painfully funny collection of haikus for attorneys who've had it. From law school delusions to firm politics, courtroom chaos, and inbox anxiety, these 5-7-5 snapshots of legal life cut straight to the point. Just like your last email that started with "Per my last email..."

Written by a practicing lawyer who's lived it, billed it, and billed it again. Chapter topics include:

• Law School Lies
• The Bar (Exam, Not the Fun Kind)
• Billable Hour Purgatory
• Client Nonsense
• Litigation Nightmares
• In-House Irony
• Emails from Hell
• Parenting with a JD
• Exit Strategies

This is not "inspirational" poetry. It's relief. In 17 syllables or less.

Perfect gift for lawyers, law students, paralegals, coworkers, and anyone contemplating a career in law.
