Trivia
When the drunk mentions he slept all through the Seabury investigation, he is referring to the committee formed by the New York state legislature on behalf of Governor Franklin Roosevelt to investigate corruption in the courts and police department of New York City in 1931-32. It led to the resignation of several judges and the mayor of New York City - Jimmy Walker.

Errores
When Gresham goes to record Tony's call to Virginia, there already are grooves cut into the full disc, indicating it had previously recorded upon and cannot be recorded over.

Citas
Law Secretary: Your boss sure has come up in the world.
Olga Michaels: Yeah, another month and he'll be able to kick a worm in the chest.

Joan Blondell Is A Highlight

"Lawyer Man" pairs William Powell and Joan Blondell. That, in itself, is enough reason to see this film about a downtown attorney, Anton "Tony" Adam, who aspires to something bigger, but is unfocused about exactly what he wants. Joan Blondell, in one of the ten film releases of 1932 that list her in its credits, is a real joy as Olga, the secretary who tries to keep Tony on track and out of mischief. She has her hands full, because Tony has an eye for the skirts and a good left hook.

When Tony's natural talents as an attorney land him in an uptown office, he still struggles to keep his nose clean. And he never notices Olga's personal feelings for him.

In 1932, Blondell was not married yet, but only four years away from her second marriage, to Dick Powell. Seeing her in this pre-Code film is a real treat, though she could have used more on-screen time.
