Venerable legal publisher Chambers & Partners has become the latest body to pimp out a cruddy piece of office furniture, by offering lawyers mentioned in its guide the chance to part with £230 + VAT in return for a plaque.
A gushing email has recently been sent to those firms which are to be ranked in the Chambers Guide 2012 (i.e. pretty much all biggish firms). The lucky firms were offered plaques - embossed on silver and "laid on an Oak veneer" - to decorate their offices. Excited partners will no doubt be thrilled to hear that each plaque "sits nicely on the wall". And all for a mere £230 plus VAT.
Admittedly that's better value than The Lawyer's special kitemark, flogged to the UK top 200 firms. And firms get something tangible for their money which they can hammer into a wall and allow to gather dust, rather than just a logo to stick on their website.
Individual lawyers who've been listed in Chambers can have one made too. The absolute cherry on top of the icing of the cake of a career in law.
