Law360's Pro Say - News & Analysis On Law And The Legal Industry

Can you reverse-engineer an entire movie out of a lawyer joke?

On this week’s show, we’re talking about the legal ethics of lying; the baseball career of Jose Canseco; the struggle for work-life balance in BigLaw; the aesthetics of courthouse bathrooms; prenuptial agreements under California law; and much more.
