The most important part of any project! http://i.imgur.com/8FBkYqC.png

Any thoughts?

Cheers,

I like it!  Simple, to the point, and a minor syntax lesson in itself, haha.  I've never been much of a graphic designer, but if I can come up with a way to improve it, I'll let you know!

I may be mistaken, but I’m not sure the code in the logo would compile without errors. The escaped open curly brace would produce an open curly brace in the output, and then the closing curly brace would cause a “Too many }'s” error. You can try this by compiling

\documentclass{minimal}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\setmainfont{Menlo Regular} % Or choose a different fixed-width font.
\begin{document}
\{✌}LaTeX for Lawyers
\end{document}

with XeLaTeX. (I’m using ✌ instead of a Greek temple.) It may be better to have a code-based logo be compilable code. Something like \✌{LaTeX for Lawyers} maybe? (where the ✌ is the Greek temple)

Good point! Here are two versions, one with valid syntax:

I like #1, but curious to hear what others think.

My vote goes to 1.  Something about 2 (I'm inclined to say the /-logo-{ structure) looks off to me.
