An index of tropes on how law, lawyers, and courtrooms are portrayed in works. For tropes about how laws affecting the media, see Media Law Tropes, and occasionally Censorship Tropes.

Note that Bunny Ears Lawyers are not all necessarily lawyers, and Rules Lawyers usually aren't, but meh, close enough. A Law Procedural is very likely to use these tropes.
