Learning To Laugh At The Law
Prominent Los Angeles based criminal defense attorney Kenny Kahn will deliver a series of lectures to students attending Law Schools throughout California.
The lectures will be delivered by Kenny in his trademark irreverent style with topics such as:
What they don't teach you in law school
Using humor in your law practice
Release tension in a trial with humor
Improve client relations using humor
Humor as a tool for negotiating with opposing attorneys
A percentage of proceeds from the lectures will be donated to the City Of Hope Foundation, a charity dedicated to the prevention and cure of cancer and other life-threatening diseases.
With a case history as colorful as his past, the USC and Boalt Hall Law School graduate has become well known for representing the famous and the infamous in a career that spans 3 decades.
Previous clients include the irascible Hustler Magazine founder Larry Flynt who had been charged with contempt for wearing an American flag as a diaper in court.
Several years ago, a mentally ill client plunged an ice pick into Kahn's chest as the two sat in a Torrance courtroom. "That was my wake up call," says Kenny, "realizing that life is short and completely unpredictable". It was soon afterwards that Kenny had a revelation, he needed to do something he had always been too afraid to try - Stand Up Comedy.
Kenny's act has headlined in Las Vegas, and he has appeared at some of the top comedy clubs on both sides of the US including The Laugh Factory, The Comedy Store, The Ice House and The Improv in Los Angeles, Cobb's Comedy Club in San Francisco, and Stand Up New York in NYC.
Maintaining a successful law practice by day and performing on stage at night, Kenny has found the two vocations complement each other very well. "It gives me a fresh perspective on my profession, and as bizarre as it sounds, incorporating humor into my legal work has made me a better attorney".
Comedian Dennis Miller has called Kenny " The Worlds funniest lawyer"
"His jokes reflect reality" – Ron Tank, CNN Entertainment
Laurin Sydney, CNN Showbiz notes Kenny is "A very funny attorney"
The Humor and the Law lecture tour is the latest chapter in the career of this colorful attorney with a gift for making people laugh out loud at legalities.
