I have to think that land surveyors may be lagging behind the legal profession in terms of marketing professional services. No, I don't mean billboards like those of David Komie The Lawyer That Rocks.

What I mean is: it's location, location, location. How many surveyors would have thought to office as this lawyer does, above a consignment store for women? His sign is silent on the matter, but presumably he has a specialty that the clientele of B'Dazzled, the Ladies Consignment Store, might need. I'm not quite sure what sort of business a land surveyor would want to office next to, though. Drive-through package stores would be out, except of course in Oklahoma where they would be unavoidable.
About 30 years ago an aspiring young attorney in this area paid to install advertising signs directly above the urinals in several very active bars and nightclubs. I have no idea if he had similar signs in the restrooms for women, but he probably did.

I won't be holding my breath to see the first building with "SURVEYOR" on it in letters the size that the lawyer used on that one. I'm not saying it's a bad idea at all, though. Obviously one would want to leave the urinal clientele to members of the bar.
In Charlotte, they have their own road.

I can think of a nearby cemetery that has some headstones bearing the names Lawyer, Judge and Jury. Not a single Scumbucket, though.
You know, Kent's sense of history is contagious. In the 1920 census, 3 people with surname Lawyers lived in Texas, but none lived in North Carolina. A bit of further research unearthed these two pieces, which confirm that Charlotte lawyers indeed have (had) their own road.
