Decorating law office, want something poker related to put up...

elonkra · #1 05-29-2005, 07:43 PM

...just graduated from law school and landed my first real job, have a nice office that I'm in the process of decorating. I'd like to find one poker-related piece to put in there, whether it be a paperweight, bookend, container, photo, painting, or picture. I'd imagine it needs to be something rather small/subtle, for a number of reasons. Wanted to know if (1) any of you guys have any great ideas; or (2) think it'd be a turnoff for the average layman to walk into his lawyer's office and see something poker-related adorning the walls/shelves.

Thanks in advance.

There was a recent article in one of the ABA magazines about poker and lawyers.

Anyway, I say keep a chip collection on display.

I hate just quoting other people's ideas, but I think this is great idea given the criteria that you stated.

How about a plaque that says "world's greatest dad." How do you spell plaque?

Depending on what type of law you're practicing, but I'm not sure how the average person would view that their lawyer has a penchant for 'gambling'. Put yourself in your average clients shoes. Kind of like how you put yourself into your opponents shoes...
