The post Don’t Forget To Vote For The Finalists: ATL’s Legally Themed Halloween Costume Contest (2025) appeared first on Above the Law.
Just before Halloween, we asked our readers to submit their legally themed costumes to us for our annual contest. We got a great crop of entries, and there even some creative costumes related to political pop culture. We think you’re going to like them a lot.
We’ve got three awesome finalists for you to choose from, and voting starts today. Who will be the winner of the sixteenth year of our competition?
But before we get to our finalists, we’ve got a super-cute honorable mention. Aww, it’s none other than Ruth Baby Ginsburg.
The first of our finalists is doing a #GRWM for … robbing the Louvre. Oh mon dieu! C’est super, pas de notes.
Next up, we’ve got a contestant with some 90s flair that everyone will remember from their 1Ls case books. It’s the star of the infamous ad that gave rise to Leonard v. PepsiCo, the contracts case we all know and love.
Last, but certainly not least, we’ve got perhaps the most meaningful Halloween costume contest entry to date. Given the state of the rule of law in America, this is a depiction the battered, beaten, and bruised Justicia, better known as Lady Justice, 2025 A.D.
You’ve seen the finalists, so now it’s time to vote. Who wore the best law-related Halloween costume this year? It’s all up to you! Polls close on SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 9, at 11:30 P.M. (Eastern time).
