What to buy someone who loves the law

The best gifts for lawyers are quiet, practical desk items. A good pen suits someone who signs and reviews documents all day, and a desk mat or organiser keeps a workspace tidy. A pair of whisky glasses works as a gift after a case. Choose plain colours, as most legal offices have a formal look.
