Will top law firms such as WLRK, Sullivan, or Cravath hire lawyers with visible tattoos? Here are some of mine:

Looks like you have more than two arms and legs.

Also, as someone with a few myself, I've got to say: those things are fucking hideous. Did you walk in, sit down, and say "Gimme something that'll make kids cry?"

Oh. I'm an idiot. Where's van winkle's pathological anonymous-abuse outing when you need it?

Also flame for too many limbs.

Ugly? The pulp comics one is fucking dope. If I were a firm partner, I would carry that applicant directly to the central vault and let him go swimming in my money like Scrooge McDuck.

yes, it would be a fucking dope poster. it does not, however, make his calf any less hairy and disgusting than it was to start.

If this isn't a flame, great tattoos. Anyone who thinks they're ugly doesn't know what a quality tattoo is.. but it looks like you could cover them all with a suit anyway. Annnnd since when did MEN with hair on their legs become something to insult? Jesus.

The dime comics one is pretty cool, but the zombie flesh-devouring is just unnecessary.

There aren't too many limbs. The zombie/ogre looking dude/pretty girl are all one calf. Then there are two arms and the (i assume) other leg. Also, they are well drawn tattoos, but they are indeed rather scary (sorry).

Based on their horror story nature I would be willing to bet that a firm does not want to see them.
However, the firm won't have to see them in a suit. Just make sure you check out the company dress code before showing them at all. If people get fired for "unnatural hair color" then you are probably out.
On the other hand, if you become a cash cow then baring them once a year in a polo shirt for the company bbq probably won't be a problem.

edited to say the squid is awesome! but again nsfw
