Now for something completely different...

Above the Law is on a mission. Our quest: to find the hottest ERISA lawyer in America. Pension law. And yes, it's just as boring as it sounds. But just because a practice area is a sleepy backwater doesn't mean its practitioners can't be hotties. To the contrary, ERISA lawyers have more time than overworked M&A attorneys to tone their bodies at the gym and get facials at the spa. So we're expecting to see some pulchritudinous practitioners in this contest. We'll accept nominations until -- eh, until whenever we feel like it, depending on the response rate. We realize there is a distinct possibility that we will end up with zero nominees for this hotties contest. We'll cross that bridge when we come to it. Assuming we receive enough nominees of both genders, the men and women will compete in separate categories. After this competition, you'll never think of ERISA the same way again. The next time you hear the words "ERISA preemption," instead of getting sleepy, you'll get turned on...
