Description
Order in the court! The judge brought down her gavel and the room fell silent. It was her first day on the bench, and she had imagined this moment since she was a law student studying until three in the morning in a cramped flat near the university, surviving on coffee and cold pizza. Her mother sat in the public gallery, holding a handkerchief and trying very hard not to cry, while her old professor watched from the back row with a proud and approving nod.
This open law book with its scales of justice and removable brass gavel is made for milestones like that. It is a distinguished gift for a law school graduate, a newly admitted attorney, a judge taking the bench, a paralegal or a retiring partner after decades of practice. Set it on a desk in a law office, a bookcase beside leather-bound statutes or a study where briefs are drafted late into the night, and it will lend a little ceremony to every working day.
