Today is Be Kind to Lawyers Day

Let’s face it, sometimes lawyers can get a pretty bad rap! Yet, lawyers serve an invaluable service to our social and judicial system. When regular folks need help writing a will, or running a business, to whom do they turn? Lawyers.
To soften the stigma, Steve Hughes created a day encouraging people to be kind to all those who practice law. In honor of Be Kind to Lawyers Day we put a poll together of our favorite fictional television lawyers from past and present. Let us know who is your favorite TV lawyer.
