The New Lawyer

"Brennans cartoons of robed judges, lawyers and legal professionals have kept the industry amused for years".

For a selection of cartoons go to the 101 Reasons to Kill All the Lawyers Blog

In 1987 in Sydney I started drawing cartoons.  I was first published in Hong Kong in 1992.  I only draw legal cartoons. I have had cartoons published in various publications including the Australian Financial Review and the Hong Kong Tatler. I have published several books which include my cartoons. 

The main character is called John Fytit (pronounced “Fight it”) and has a passing physical resemblance to my principal during articles, who became a Judge.

I tell you this as I want to make it clear that the John Fytit character is not me. After asking me, "Who draws the cartoons?" this tends to be the second question that I am asked.

As in real life, all the lawyer characters look the same. Lady lawyer characters are a bit thin on the ground but when they do appear they have glasses and pointy heads.
