Ethics.


After drafting a will for an elderly client, the lawyer announced a fee of $50.

The client gave the lawyer a $50 note.

After the client left, the lawyer saw that the client had in fact paid $100, as two of the client's $50 notes had stuck together.

Looking at the $50 overpayment, an ethical question arose in the lawyer's mind

"Do I tell my partner"?

Same reason never go fishing with a lawyer, - if the boat sinks and a sharks around he won't bite the lawyer out of professional courtesy, which leaves only me!

Lawyer jokes - now we are in strife! :doh:
