Office Upgrades
What have you all done to "upgrade" your office? I got my own giant monitor (which has been amazing) and a plant. Any other cool designs/upgrades?

I hung up records on the wall and have a record player / Bluetooth speaker. I also replaced the firm provided pen holders /etc. with cheap but better looking distressed wood versions. Gives the office space a nice homey vibe.

Re: Office Upgrades
IMO every practicing lawyer should own a mechanical keyboard. This profession requires so much typing, and mechanical keyboards make typing such a pleasurable experience.

Re: Office Upgrades
My own keyboard and mouse. This is probably the best purchase because these are used pretty much all day. Gget something that you are comfortable with, I personally hate the standard-issue Dell hardware. I would second the person about the monitor as well, but I can’t do that on government systems. To get around that I use my Surface Pro a lot when researching (better quality screen to read on and easier on the eyes).
Swag from my military career prior to becoming a lawyer (now work as a DoD Civilian attorney so this is relevant).
A couple of plants to freshen up the office air and add some color.
If this is somewhere you are going to be for a while, make sure you get a nice, comfortable chair and a standing desk. My office came with both and this is so important for your health and well-being.
Also as others have said, my own writing instruments and holders. Hate the cheap crap that is usually provided and I would rather be comfortable since I handwrite all my notes.
