Congratulations to Proctor Heyman, LLP, a well-respected Delaware corporate litigation firm, on the announcement today that they won a national competition for their firm’s holiday card, as determined by the editors of the widely-read Above the Law blog. Here is the story announcing the award. Here is a link to the card. [Hint: Make sure your volume is turned up in order to hear the music with the card.] Proctor Heyman bested some of the country’s largest firms to bring the trophy for this annual award to The First State.

Kurt Heyman described the concept behind the card as follows:

We try to pick iconic themes from popular culture that will work with the number of attorneys we have. We had four partners when we did the Abbey Road card; and we have two name partners to portray the Blues Brothers — with the rest of the attorneys portraying members of the PH Blues Band. The Blues Brothers also worked from the perspective of Vern Proctor’s and my respective statures (I’m the shorter, stouter one). In fact, Vern and I went to a Halloween party a number of years ago as the Blues Brothers, so this was really a reprise for us.
