A gentle reminder. A legal doctrine. A personal reckoning.
This mug is for anyone who looked at the idea of law school, litigation, billable hours, or public service and thought, “Yes, that seems fine.” And then actually lived it.
Because the idea of a thing and the thing itself are rarely the same. You knew what you were signing up for. Mostly. Kind of. But still — you chose this. And despite the stress, the late nights, and the occasional existential spiral, you’ve accomplished something real.
Flip the mug around and you’ll find Volenti non fit injuria: to one who is willing, no harm is done. It’s doctrine, it’s philosophy, and it’s the perfect Latin phrase for professionals who accept the grind with eyes open… or at least open enough.
This mug doesn’t judge. It just nods knowingly while you drink your coffee.
Ideal For:
• Law students deep in the middle of it
• Attorneys who remember why they started all of this (most days)
• Public servants, clerks, and academics
• Anyone whose career came with a warning label
• A thoughtful, slightly ironic gift for milestones and survival moments
Why You’ll Love This Mug:


• Equal parts encouragement and accountability
• Classic legal Latin paired with modern self-awareness
• Subtle enough for the office, honest enough for real life
• A daily reminder that choosing something hard is still choosing
