LAWYER BINGO
Lawyer Bingo started as a way to remind ourselves that lawyers aren’t all black robes and Latin phrases. They’re people too, who once sat in the same lecture theatres stressing over assessments. This quick game is about peeling back the professional layer to catch a glimpse into how lawyers actually live their day-to-day in the workplace, the quirks they carry with them, and the relatable choices they’ve made along the way. Each box coloured in purple is their way of saying, ‘Yep, I’ve done that before!’ If you’re a lawyer too, play along and compare your answers!
