Entre Nous


Since 1992 Claude Ducloux has been writing a regular legal humor column for the Austin Bar Journal. The Column, called "Entre Nous" (translated: "Between us") has been a  favorite of Austin lawyers according to reader surveys.    Frequently, these articles are re-printed by other legal journals, magazines and newsletters. A small sampling of those articles are contained in this website.

The State Bar of Texas honored this work in 2003 with the "Best Article Series" Award at the Annual Bar Convention.
