Most assuredly not that paranoid weirdo from whom you seek legal advice: that would be your legal counsel. No, the Legal Council is that “cleverly”-named[1] in-house rock band at a magic circle law firm — every one’s got one — comprising trainees and a partner who was once — in 1982 — in a regional heat of Opportunity Knocks.

Also known as

  • The Style Counsel (geddit squared —see above)
  • The Paper Jam[2]

Uncool, but one day they might morph into something amazing like SuperCheese, or the Jolly Contrarian’s own in-house legal team band, Dangerboy.
