Good lawyers leave their mark on legal communities. Dragon Lawyers get asked to stop leaving their mark on each damned page of the complaint. In what has to be the best case for law schools to begin teaching a summer module on how to add watermarks to briefs, a Michigan based law firm decided to zhuzh up their legal writing with a picture. <\/p>\n

See for yourself:<\/p>\n

This is awesome \u2013 law firm called Dragon Lawyers filed court papers with this watermark on EVERY PAGE until the judge ordered them to stop. https:\/\/t.co\/hGayutwmFN<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/25xiWfPXCI<\/a><\/p>\n

I always wondered what Spyro was up to once the games ran their course! <\/p>\n

Everyone and their Dragon really has been getting a law degree. The judge didn\u2019t just let Dragon Lawyers PC off with a tail wagging \u2014 the departure from complaint norms was addressed professionally in a court order. Which is great because it just makes everything funnier:<\/p>\n

Not to be a stickler for minutiae, but the above does not appear to be a cartoon dragon. Cartoon dragons look more like this: <\/p>\n

Whether the Dragon Lawyer\u2019s image was a cartoon or not is less interesting than the brainstorming about how pleadings should<\/em> look that followed:<\/p>\n

Law firms should have sponsors and have them included on the watermark in their pleadings https:\/\/t.co\/kMl6JGRDoA<\/a><\/p>\n

Why stop there? Give the judges some! Why not require Harlan Crow\u2019s family emblem next to any Clarence Thomas opinion? Far from deserving ridicule, Dragon Lawyers should be praised for being on the cutting edge of legal transparency. It only takes one look at their complaint to know whose side they\u2019re on! And to make matters better, the firm has been consistent:<\/p>\n

I went back in PACER to see how long this attorney has been dragon-posting, and it’s been at least 7 years<\/p>\n

He even water-marked his filings with a blue dragon when his firm was just “Perrone Law PC” in 2018 lmaohttps:\/\/t.co\/9opQqqCBBf<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/1ynXQ5duPa<\/a><\/p>\n

After the 7 year mark, you just gotta let some things fly. Not everything, though. The recent surge in interest has unearthed some unexpected interest in the firm\u2019s site that may cause some legal trouble down the line.<\/p>\n

Not to get somber and serious, but this guy has obviously fake client reviews on his website. He\u2019ll be suspended in like a week.https:\/\/t.co\/kN14L1l3aN<\/a><\/p>\n

I wonder if the suspension paperwork will have a dragon on it. <\/p>\n
