Lawyers in Love is the seventh album by American singer-songwriter Jackson Browne, released in 1983 by Asylum Records.
In the intervening years between 1980's Hold Out and Lawyers in Love, Browne had released the single "Somebody's Baby", which became his biggest commercial hit to date,[2] peaking at No.
[3] Lawyers in Love was the first Browne album since his 1972 self-titled debut not to feature guitarist David Lindley.
Critic Robert Christgau called the album "a satire on, celebration of, and lament for the upper-middle classmates an Orange County liberal knows like he knows his neighbor's backyard".
[5] Rolling Stone critic Christopher Connelly felt that the record was "a more nervy, intelligent LP than its predecessor" and "a welcome widening of perspective that allows Browne to escape, once and for all, the L.A. albatross that has hung around his neck."
