Need a break from legalese? We got you! Here's a quick round of lawyer jokes to lighten the mood. Enjoy the puns, groan at the one-liners, and remember – a good lawyer is your partner, not the punchline.


  1. What's the best thing about lawyer jokes? Lawyers can't sue you for telling them... (well, not in South Africa anyway).

  2. An entrepreneur asks his lawyer, "What are my chances of winning this case?" The lawyer, ever the optimist, replies, "Well, I've been practicing law for 20 years and I'm still not sure. But the good news is, you'll get your money's worth in entertainment value!"

  3. Q: What's the best thing about lawyer jokes? A: They're free. (Though a good lawyer's services definitely won't be!)

  4. Why did the judge ask the lawyer for his briefs? Because he didn't think the lawyer could argue his case naked.

  5. An entrepreneur boasts to his friend, "I just wrote my own contract!" His friend replies, "Congratulations! Now try building a house without an architect."

  6. What do you call a lawyer who sings in the shower? An aquaholic.

  7. Why did the lawyer cross the road? To get to the unethical side. (Okay, this one might be a bit harsh, but hey, it's a lawyer joke!)

  8. A young entrepreneur asks a seasoned lawyer, "What's the most important thing a lawyer should have?" The lawyer smiles and says, "A good client who listens!"

  9. Q: What's the difference between a good lawyer and a bad lawyer? A: A good lawyer knows the law, a bad lawyer knows the judge...and the best lawyer knows both!

  10. A man walks into a library and asks the librarian for legal books on self-defense. The librarian whispers, "They're right behind you!"
