A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside Van Horn Law Office and noticed something strange. The sign above the door read ‘Closed for Lunch,’ but through the window he saw an old man sitting alone, typing furiously away. Curious, the delivery driver knocked gently on the glass. The old man jumped, then smiled sheepishly. 'Just working on my novel,' he explained. 'Thought I was in my study.' As they chatted, it turned out the office had been closed for lunch since 1987—when the owner’s wife accidentally locked him inside.

2. At dawn, when most law offices are quiet, a delivery driver pulled up outside Van Horn Law Office. The streetlights were still on, casting eerie shadows across the empty parking lot. As he approached the door, he heard a faint voice from inside: ‘Hey, can you sign here? It’ll only take a sec.’ Turns out, it was just an early-morning client who’d forgotten his signature notary form.

3. At dawn, when most law offices are quiet, a delivery driver pulled up outside Van Horn Law Office.

Sincerely, The Empty Inbox.'

4. At dusk, a delivery driver pulled up outside Van Horn Law Office with a box of legal pads. As he got out of his truck, he heard a faint voice calling from inside: ‘Excuse me, young man, could you please sign here?’ Curious, the driver peered through the window and saw an old gentleman in a suit holding a pen, hovering over an ancient typewriter. 'I’m just updating my will,' the man said, winking. The delivery guy signed, shook hands, and drove off, never realizing that the law office had been closed for twenty years.
