"The Best Legal Advice" joke

Jerome wasn't just a lawyer, he was a lawyer who was desperate for business. Needless to say, he was very happy when the court appointed him to defend an indigent defendant.
"You are to confer with the defendant in the hallway, and give him the best legal advice you possibly can," ordered the Judge.
After some time, Jerome re-entered the courtroom alone. When the Judge asked him where the defendant was, he replied, "Your Honor, you instructed me to give him the best legal advice I could. I found out that he was guilty as hell, so I told him to split."
