On his Business Development blog not long ago, lawyer and marketing expert Peter Darling made note of the images one should never use in a law firm ad because they are cliché—gavels, eagles, scales of justice are just a few.

What images should be avoided at all costs in law firm/lawyer ads? And what are some of the more creative images you've seen in lawyer and law firm ads?
Tell us in the comments below.
