Houston Criminal Defense Blog 2010 October The Lawyer Briefcase Previous Post | Next Post The Lawyer Briefcase Posted By Herman Martinez || 26-Oct-2010 I finally pulled the trigger and bought a new briefcase for work this weekend. I had not bought one in a few years, so I figured it was about time. Frankly, I thought I would never buy another briefcase because I figured I would not have a need when I bought my last one. I also figured that by 2010 our office would be completely paperless. I was wrong on that prediction. I have cut down on the paper I use at the office, but the courts continue to require the same amount of paperwork. Hopefully, in the near future the courthouse will be paperless as well. I had spotted the briefcase last year, but talked myself out of spending so much money on something that I really did not need that much. I continued looking around for a better deal, hoping that the case would go on sale, but that never happened. I was surprised by the lack of "Attorney/Lawyer" briefcases on the market. I have a rolling briefcase for trial that is much bigger then the traditional lawyer briefcase. This allows me to carry many of the items that I will need for trial. I have a Spring/Summer briefcase and well as a Winter one. The Spring/Summer briefcase is a tan color while the Winter one is a traditional black one. I decided that I needed a brown briefcase too. Nevertheless, it is not as easy as picking a color and going with that. In my quest to find the right briefcase I found that I am not a fan of the over the shoulder style. I do not like how my suit looks while a briefcase is dangling from my shoulder. Also, I needed at least two dividers for my files. I needed one for the cases that are pending and the other are for the pending cases. Additional features that I required is that it had to have a pen and business card holder. I have one case that does not have this feature and find it annoying when searching for these items. The one I bought has all this and more. I am very pleased with my purchase, and hope it lasts me for many years. Categories: Harris County Courthouse Share Post
