Legal briefs, judicial robes, and tight skirts. Oddball cases, wacky clients, and conniving opponents. Plus crabby judges and nutty law partners; courtroom drama and office romance. Young attorney Bolo Jackson finds himself in the midst of it all, in this collection of short stories based on his early years as a lawyer in North Carolina. If there had been a lawyer in the old Andy Griffith TV series, Bolo would have been the guy. But Southern law practice in a simpler time wasn’t so simple. How do you handle a judge so mean he’ll jail his own kin — or a hot secretary so jealous she’ll give your files to your opponent? How can you impress big-city opponents when you’ve got chickens and rabbits roaming through your small-town law office? Does a “legalizer†give you the right to water your lawn naked? When does a car deserve to be shot to death? You’ll find the answers in this witty and charming memoir by a lawyer who learned the hard way — and had a heck of a fun time doing it. Pardon Me for Protruding and Other True Tales: A Young Lawyer's Life, Learning, and Loves. A Memoir by Bolaride Jackson, Attorney at Law
If you enjoy this book, you'll want to read the equally exciting and ridiculous sequel, Such a Good Lawyer: Too Bad You're in Jail: A Young Lawyer's Life, Learning, and Loves, Volume 2. A further memoir by Bolaride Jackson, Attorney at Law
