Lawyer joke

The local charity realized that it had never received a donation from
the city's most successful lawyer.So a volunteer paid the lawyer a
visit in his lavish office. The volunteer opened the meeting by
saying, 'Our research shows that even though your annual income is many millions of dollars, you don't give a penny to charity. Wouldn't
you like to give something back to
your community?.

The lawyer thinks for a minute and says, 'First, did your research
also show you that my mother is dying
after a long painful illness, and she has huge medical bills that are
far beyond her ability to pay?'

Embarrassed, the rep mumbles, 'Uh... No, I didn't know that.'

'Secondly,' says the lawyer, 'did it show that my brother, a disabled
Veteran, is blind and confined to a
wheelchair and is unable to support his wife and six children?

The stricken rep begins to stammer an apology, but is cut off again

'Thirdly, did your research also show you that my sister's husband
died in a dreadful car accident, leaving
her penniless with a mortgage and three children, one of whom is
disabled and another that has learning
disabilities requiring an array of private tutors?'

The humiliated rep, completely beaten, says, 'I'm so sorry. I had no idea.

And the lawyer says, 'So, if I didn't give any money to them, what
makes you think I'd give any to you?
