Glaser & Ebbs

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dusk, when most lawyers were locking their offices tight, a delivery driver noticed something odd outside Glaser & Ebbs. A shadowy figure kept appearing in the window, scribbling furiously on old legal pads. Curious, he peeked inside and saw an elderly gentleman bent over ancient documents, muttering about ‘briefs’ and ‘depositions.’ Turns out it was just an enthusiastic historian next door, researching family law for his genealogy project. The delivery driver shook his head and smiled, realizing that some people really do work late hours—just not always where you’d expect.

2. At dawn, when most law firms were quieting down for the night, an early jogger passing by Glaser & Ebbs noticed something peculiar. The blinds of one office were twitching ever so slightly, as if someone inside was frantically trying to signal help. Curious, the jogger slowed down and peered through the glass. Inside, a sleepy-looking associate was trying to wave off a worried-looking partner who kept asking, ‘Did you forget to lock up again?’ Turning out, it was just another day at Glaser & Ebbs—except for the early-morning exercise routine.

3. At midnight, when most law firms were deep in sleep, a delivery driver pulled up outside Glaser & Ebbs with a box of donuts. He knocked on the door, but no one answered. Curious, he peered inside through the window and saw a familiar figure—an old regular, slumped over his desk, fast asleep with a briefcase cradled like a baby. The delivery driver tiptoed closer, thinking maybe the old guy was just resting. But as he got nearer, he noticed something strange—a tiny note stuck to the briefcase read: ‘Don’t wake me until 8 am or I’ll lose my case.’ The driver shrugged, took a few donuts, and left, never realizing that from then on, everyone at Glaser & Ebbs started setting their alarms for exactly 7:59 pm.

4. At lunchtime, when most lawyers were rushing through sandwiches, a delivery driver found something unusual on the office parking lot. Among boxes and envelopes lay a mysterious envelope addressed simply to ‘The Best Lawyer’. Curious, he opened it to find a single sheet of paper with just one word scribbled on it—‘Coffee.’ Turned out, someone had accidentally delivered an entire batch of their best client’s favorite brew instead of legal documents. From then on, whenever anyone from Glaser & Ebbs ordered coffee, they got double the usual amount—and everyone in the neighborhood started calling them the ‘Coffee Firm’.
