As we bid farewell to 2021, we salute the firms that defied legal marketing norms, and chose to reveal their personality instead, no matter how unhinged that might appear.
It is a celebration of the most tenuous links to promoting legal services, as we witness lawyers posing, singing and, in one case, jumping into a pond for no apparent reason.
Here is a countdown of the top 10 best of bonkers this year.
10. Thackray Williams made a wonder brew.
9. A.L. Hughes & Co was refreshingly traditional.
8. As was the firm's head boy
7. HogLove's former Moscow MP was ready for her close up.
6. WMH Law also brought some glamour, plus a big bow.
5. George Partner was exclusive, but also painfully awkward.
4. Baker McKenzie's Vietnam office sang.
3. Clarke Willmott attempted harmony on a boat.
2. Sproull Law also kept it nautical.
1. But Berlin firm Hildebrandt takes the top spot for its heavy dose of wunderlich. Bravo!
If you have seen a law firm with a bonkers website, do tell RollOnFriday.

Re. point 6, perhaps this is the time to repeat the question "So how many here have received "thank you"-cards from clients?". And perhaps a poll?
I got flowers, twice, and not for my looks, nobody would call me handsome. Anyway, the reaction from my colleagues suggested this was not normal at all.

I had expected more coverage (no pun intended) of Russian lawyers. For instance, one has a very successful sideline as a model that would probably be a bit much for Instagram, though technically speaking she is fully clothed. Names withheld in the interest of what remains of decency.
