Review by Law Institute Journal (Victoria)
There are few better at the art of skewering the pretensions and
idiosyncrasies of legal practice than Queensland lawyer Paul Brennan, author of
the Law & Disorder website which, for years, has been dispensing useful
legal advice heavily disguised as comedy. As well as tips on topics such as “The
10 greatest legal mistakes in business . . . and how to avoid them”, the site
is host to caustic and comic legal cartoons, an eZine and more.
Those readers familiar with the comic Queenslander’s books, including The Law is an Ass . . . Make Sure It Doesn’t Bite Yours, can now add to their collection with the latest Brennan book 101 Reasons to Kill all the Lawyers.
The book grew out of Paul’s blog of the same name. He said he
decided on 101 reasons as he didn’t want to depress the entire legal profession
by having 1001.
But there’s nothing depressing about 101 Reasons, with its advice about the
things lawyers should know about but might not, such as the secret of enjoying
committee meetings, how to field complaints, career planning and dealing
successfully with their own legal problems. It is also about things Paul says
lawyers are not expected to know about but probably should such as change,
innovation, emotions, relationships and sex”.
