About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, as a regular walked into The Karlin Law Firm for his daily coffee, he noticed something peculiar. His little daughter, who usually ignored the place, suddenly pointed and whispered, ‘Daddy, look! That man’s briefcase is talking!’ Curious, the father approached the man, only to hear the briefcase say, 'Memo to self: buy new suitcase with soundproofing.' Turns out, it was just an old briefcase making strange noises. Everyone had a good laugh—except maybe the poor guy's secretary.

2. In the late afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to The Karlin Law Firm's loading dock with a large box. As he unloaded it, something unusual caught his eye—a tiny, handwritten note taped inside the crate read: ‘Open only if you’re not guilty.’ Curious, the driver opened the note and found an old key inside. He shrugged, stuck it in his pocket and went on his way. Months later, during a routine office move, someone discovered the key had unlocked one of the filing cabinets. Inside was a jar filled with free coffee coupons. Turned out, the firm’s founder liked to joke that anyone who wasn’t guilty could use them anytime.

3. At lunchtime, a delivery driver pulled up to The Karlin Law Firm’s door with an unusual package. ‘What’s in it?’ asked the receptionist curiously. ‘Just some paperwork,’ replied the driver mysteriously. Inside, the partners were deep in discussion when suddenly everyone froze. A tiny note fell out of the envelope: 'Dear lawyers, I’ve brought your weekly coffee order—enjoy!' Turned out the mysterious driver was just the neighborhood barista who knew they always forgot to get their usual blend.

4. At closing time, an old man approached the receptionist at The Karlin Law Firm and asked, ‘Do you know where I can hire someone to write my will in five minutes?’ Receptionist: 'Well, sir, I'm not authorized for that.' Old Man: 'Just one page then!' Receptionist (smiling): 'I'm sorry, but even a one-page will takes more than five minutes.' Old Man (grumbling): 'Fine, I'll just go down the street...' He turns around and waves goodbye, muttering something about young people these days.
