About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One night, as a regular sat sipping whiskey in Zgrablich & Montgomery’s smoky lobby, an odd message crackled over the intercom: ‘To the gentleman with the green tie—your briefcase is on fire.’ The man looked around confused, then noticed his colleague—a delivery driver—standing nearby, holding a small extinguisher. With a sheepish smile, he realized it was just another prank from his friend. The intercom buzzed again: 'And your briefcase is now waterproof!'

2. One morning, while a delivery driver was unloading boxes into Zgrablich & Montgomery's dimly lit basement, he heard an eerie humming sound coming from behind the filing cabinets. Curious, he followed the noise and discovered an old safe door ajar. Inside lay a dusty briefcase filled with ancient documents—all in perfect condition despite their age. Turns out it belonged to a long-forgotten partner who had passed away years ago but left behind his prized collection of vintage law textbooks. The delivery guy ended up becoming quite the local historian among his neighbors.

3. Late one afternoon, a neighbor was watering her garden when she noticed something odd outside Zgrablich & Montgomery’s office window. Curious, she peered closer and saw two lawyers deep in conversation—one frantically waving his arms while pointing at an empty coffee cup on the table. Suddenly, he reached for another cup that wasn’t there, causing his colleague to laugh so hard he spilled his own drink. The neighbor smiled, thinking perhaps even lawyers could use a good joke now and then.

4. Early one autumn dawn, when fog lingered over Zgrablich & Montgomery’s quiet street, a delivery driver found himself lost in thought. He’d been humming an old tune as he pushed his truck towards the law firm’s entrance, unaware that the usual early-morning silence had given way to strange whispers from inside. Curious, he peered through the window and saw two lawyers deep in discussion, their heads so close together they looked like they were sharing secrets via telepathy. Suddenly, one of them fumbled with his tie and muttered something about ‘Montgomery’s morning knots.’ The delivery driver cracked up laughing, realizing these guys might be more clueless than he initially thought.
