Press Release Summary = Summary: AttorneyMan Comics and The Billable Hour Company
have partnered to offer greeting cards for lawyers and legal professionals featuring
the popular AttorneyMan character. The humorous greeting cards are available

www.artamata.com/cardstore/thebillablehour.

Press Release Body = Ardsley, New York October 27, 2006-In a recent survey by the
Remsen Group (a marketing consultant firm that works exclusively with lawyers), 81%
of respondents said their firms send holiday cards to clients. To help law firms
stand out from the crowd this holiday season, AttorneyMan Comics and The Billable
Hour Company have joined forces to offer greeting cards for lawyers and legal
professionals featuring the popular AttorneyMan character. The greeting cards are
available exclusively through The Billable Hour Card Store at
www.artamata.com/cardstore/thebillablehour.

AttorneyMan recently made his debut in an action-packed and amusingly written comic
book designed to teach lawyers the ins and outs of successful marketing. The comic
book's storyline revolves around Tim Silver, an attorney at the fictional law firm
Cha Chingi Changa LLP, who, after nine years and 23,000 billable hours, finally
makes partner. However, he soon realizes that the firm\'s other partners no longer
give him work, that he has no clients of his own, and that he lacks the marketing
skills to develop business. Enter Dr. Development, who gives Tim a magic elixir that
transforms him into AttorneyMan, an überlawyer who masters the art of sales and
develops a roster of "supersatisfied" clients. AttorneyMan was created by
Boston-area consultant (and former lawyer) Karen Katz and illustrator Raul Gonzalez.

In September, The Billable Hour Company opened the world's only online greeting card
store featuring humorous and customizable printed greeting cards especially for
lawyers and other legal professionals. The store, which currently offers over 150
different cards, uses print-on-demand technology that allows customers to send
highly personalized cards to their clients, colleagues, prospects and friends.

"AttorneyMan\'s mission is to inspire action and teamwork. Nothing says this better
than collaborating with a company dedicated to helping lawyers achieve work/life
balance through humor," says Katz.

Billable Hour partner Lisa Solomon agrees: "AttorneyMan and The Billable Hour
Company both use humor and creativity to encourage lawyers to take positive action;
partnering with AttorneyMan Comics to produce greeting cards featuring the
AttorneyMan characters is a natural way to help spread this philosophy."

Initially, the Billable Hour Card Store will feature holiday-related AttorneyMan
cards alongside the store's existing legal humor cards by cartoonist Stu Rees. The
AttorneyMan collection will expand to include other holidays and important events in
a lawyer's life, as well as topics such as lawyer marketing.

Single cards are $2.99 each, and bulk discounts are available for purchases of 10
cards or more. The card store is at www.artamata.com/cardstore/thebillablehour.
