Law Firm Christmas Cards
[Guest post by DRJ]
Today’s Wall Street Journal Law Blog previews two holiday cards, presumably to show that lawyers have a sense of humor and/or can be nice. Here’s one I like from Miami’s Sterns Weaver:
“Past contributions by our firm have enabled the Daily Bread Food Bank to deliver over 1.3 million meals to those in need in our community. This year, we decided to contribute a truck to help make the deliveries a little easier.
When you see this truck in our community, you may notice that our name is not on it. That is because the gift of this truck is made in your honor. It would not have been possible without you.”
Here’s another (click the link) from Grodsky & Olecki, a California entertainment firm that represents striking writers.
Our office gets a lot of cards but this year’s cards were noticeably different than prior years’ cards. There were very few green and red cards and no cards actually said “Merry Christmas.” I guess it’s the season of politically correct blue holiday cards.

Ok, I admit it. I chuckled.
