Burnett & Williams, PC

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dusk, when most law firms are quieting down, a delivery driver pulled up to Burnett & Williams, PC with an unusual package. The receptionist took one look and said, ‘You’ve gotta be kidding me.’ Inside was a cake decorated like a gavel and a scroll, with a note reading: 'Happy Anniversary from your favorite clients!' Turns out, it was their anniversary party in disguise.

2. In the early morning hours, before anyone else arrived, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in the firm’s parking lot. Among the usual boxes and envelopes lay an old, dusty violin case. The delivery driver picked it up curiously, thinking maybe someone had forgotten it. When he opened the case, he found not a violin but an ancient-looking ukulele with a handwritten note inside: ‘To the next person who finds me, please don’t sue us!’

3. One afternoon, while a young girl played outside, she heard an unusual sound coming from Burnett & Williams' mail slot. Curious, she approached and found it spitting out not letters, but tiny rubber ducks. She picked one up and giggled as it quacked softly. A surprised lawyer poked his head out of the office door and called down, ‘Miss, please return that duck!’ Turning around, she saw him waving sheepishly with another dozen ducks in his hand—obviously someone had mistaken them for documents.

4. On a particularly foggy morning, when even lawyers usually stay home, someone knocked on Burnett & Williams’ door. The receptionist peered through the glass and saw no one. The door opened slightly, and an old envelope slipped inside with a faint ‘clunk’. The receptionist picked it up curiously—only to hear another knock from within the building. She looked around puzzled but found nobody else there. Turning back to the envelope, she noticed it was addressed simply: ‘To whom it may concern, please deliver to Mr. Burnett or Mr. Williams.’
