Gift Ideas for a lawyer?

I am looking for gift ideas that are $75 or under for my fiance's sister's fiance (if that makes any sense at all.)  All we know about him is that he is a lawyer.    Does anyone know what to get a lawyer for Christmas?  The only ideas I was able to garner from other sources were gift cards from Barnes and Noble and Books - A - Million.

 

Thanks in advance ladies!

Re: Gift Ideas for a lawyer?

  • He probably has a favorite liquor, that can be popular with lawyers.  Otherwise you could get him a nice high end pen with his name engraved.  That could be his "special" pen for signing his legal documents. Otherwise lawyers are just like other people, what would you get any male acquaintance for Christmas?

    This.  Seriously, I can't think of a single "legal oriented gift" DH or I would want for the holidays.  Go with "generic male gift" if you don't know him well - like slippers, a wallet, starbucks cards, alcohol....or your FI could ask his sister for a little more information about this guy she's marrying other than his profession.  Wouldn't you want his family to do that for you?

    Ditto. ?I'd assume he already got the briefcase/nice pen/other lawyerly gifts at law school graduation. ?Try to find out more about his out-of-work interests, or just give him whatever you'd give any male acquaintance.

  • Booze. I use to work for lawyers.
  • I don't remember where I ran across it but I found a "Passing the Bar" trivia game.  Obviously, he has already passed the bar but it might be interesting to have a gam where he *should* know most of the answers...
  • lolol

    I'm a lawyer. I like

    - clothes

    - wine

    - movies

    - books

    - Starbucks

    - etc etc etc.

    I do not like:

    - office supplies/stuff for my desk

    - anything that bears my name followed by the title "esq."

    - reading about the law in my spare time.

    hth!

  • All of the lawyers I know would appreciate a Starbucks gift card.  Most of the lawyers I know would appreciate a nice bottle of red wine.
