Press Release Body = Ardsley, New York May 30, 2006-Continuing its campaign to
promote work/life balance for lawyers through humor, the Billable Hour Company has
added two new regular contributors-cartoonist Stu Rees and cartoonist/author Bob
Pladek-to The Timesheet, its free monthly e-newsletter.

Rees, an honors graduate of Harvard Law School, spends two-thirds of his time
cartooning and devotes one-third to his law practice, in which he represents over
300 cartoonists. Pladek, who will be contributing his comic, Juris (which is drawn
by German graphic artist Reinhard Calieb) as well as humorous articles (in a column
aptly entitled \"Oddservations\"), is a "recovering lawyer," Special Sections Editor
for New Jersey Lawyer and folk singer. Rees' website is at www.Stus.com; Pladek's
is at www.JurisComic.com.

"The response that we've received from our readers has been so gratifying," says
Billable Hour partner Lisa Solomon. "We are very excited to introduce them to the
finest legal humorists we know." "We've tapped into a growing audience of attorneys
and other legal professionals who appreciate a humorous and sometimes irreverent
take on their careers," adds partner Mark Solomon.

Rees and Pladek join legal humorists Sean Carter and James Rose and work/life
balance columnist Cheryl Stephens at The Timesheet.

Says the irrepressible Rees, "I'm excited to be part of The Timesheet, but even more
excited that I no longer have to fill out timesheets." Pladek, not to be outdone,
observed: "They asked for a pithy comment. I asked if everyone at Billable Hour had
a lisp."
