The Book They Throw at You: A Sarcastic Lawyer's Guide* to the Unholy Chaos of Our Legal System *God, No, Not Actual Legal Advice

In 2021, newly barred attorney Reb Masel started posting on TikTok about the intricacies and absurdities of the legal profession. People of all ages, unused to seeing a young, outspoken attorney talk about the law in a frank, sharp, brutally hilarious way, quickly tuned in. Now millions of fans around the world turn to Reb not only for the laughs--and her viral "Iconic Court Transcripts" series--but for her ability to decipher a field so often incomprehensible by design.

The Book They Throw at You is a collection of Reb's wisdom and witticism about the compelling, peculiar, and lesser-known aspects of the legal system: intriguing case studies, arcane traditions, inspiring lessons, unbelievable antics, wild lawyers, wilder judges, iconic court transcripts, and Reb's typically incisive, hilarious commentary spanning centuries of law. Featuring accompanying illustrations designed by Reb herself, she takes the whole system to court, revealing how devastating and ridiculous--yet ultimately essential--the law can be.
