Top's Lawyer is, as his name suggests, a lawyer, and Top's lawyer. As well as being a lawyer, Top's Lawyer is also a skilled use of magic, having studied under Mumbo Jumbo. He gets offended at people who eat pumpkins, and is occasionally an advocate for vegetable and fruit rights. Yes, he's against vegetarians. Whatever. He is one of the older yet lesser-used characters.

Top Story Bio
Top's Lawyer is... well, Top's Lawyer. What's his real name? Iono. So anyway, he's actually both a lawyer and a shaman. Mostly a lawyer, although he does have a wand with a pumpkin-shaped end and can do some magic. In fact, he was originally going to be a shaman, but ended up changing and becoming a lawyer. He first represented Top when he was accused of sneaking into King Dedede's Castle. Top won, even though it turned out he actually had snuck in. Later, he joined the YB for a short time, then left. He then represented Top again when Cackletta, Fawful and Grunty framed him in Tihnompot: Witchy Fury. I think he and Sub are friends, or at least have the potential to be friends. Maybe.
History
Lawyer... ing
In Top's Lawyer's early years, he was studying to be a shaman, but after a time, he decided to become a lawyer instead, although still did magic on the side. After becoming a lawyer, he did a series of small cases, but his big case would come in the form of a kirby named Top. Top was on trial for supposedly breaking into King Dedede's Castle, and although the odds (and a king) were against him, he was able to persuade the jury to vote Top innocent. Once he won this case, he became more well-known, and began being called Top's Lawyer.
Top's Lawyer would continue to take court cases until early 2006, when he went to Star World and joined The Yoshi Bodyguards, an organization Top was a part of. He and his magic would help them out on several occasions until about a month later, where he left to take another court case, and wouldn't return to be a member of the YB again, although he did consider it.
He wouldn't need to represent Top again until about 2 years later, where Top was framed for robbing a bunch of places and people. The prosecutor was Koopa von Koopworth, and though Top's Lawyer had the upper hand, Top was declared guilty--it was later revealed the jury had been hypnotized by Fawful into saying that. Because of this, Top's Lawyer and the judge, Subsourian the Dark, went to try and find the stolen items themselves, only to end up following Chicken Head. In the end, they were able to find the items, and the fake Top, but Fake Top used the stolen Chaos Emeralds to become a true clone of Top; Top was able to defeat it, though. After that, Top's Lawyer returned home.
During the Holidays of 2008, Top's Lawyer got a call from Top saying some crazy toad was claiming Santa Claus was stalking him and was pressing charges, so Top's Lawyer came down to represent Santa. Of course, in the end, Santa was declared innocent.
The Diamonds of Insanity
Without very many cases coming up in 2009, Top's Lawyer, along with a group of other characters were hired as a strike team under Sneezier along with Wiggly Jr., Enni, Tron, Jet Gundam, and Hey You. They went into a temple on New Euphrates, a planet where all life had been destroyed, and inside they were attacked by ROBs and Vhozon. Deeper inside, it appeared that the Celestial Architects, whom had made the temple, had made it to hide something from other Celestial Architects.
At the bottom of the temple, they found a strange, one-eyed crystal which attacked them with horrifying images. Top's Lawyer, specifically, went through an event long ago when he was almost turned into a pie. However, they were suddenly and inexplicably sent out of the temple into the Starcruiser Prime's cargo bay. Afterwards, Top's Lawyer returned to his home for some spiritual healing, then went right back to work as a lawyer.
Personal Information
Personality
Unlike the generic picture of a lawyer, Top's Lawyer tries to be more moralistic, and makes sure that the clients he represents aren't actually guilty of the crime they're being accused of. Strangely enough, in the trial that made him well-known, when he first represented Top, Top actually was guilty.
For some reason, he used to try and keep his magical abilities secret, but in more recent times has actively used them in public. He always puts his lawyer duties first, though, and oftentimes tries not to use them in court unless things start getting a bit out of hand. He takes his job seriously, as well as most other things, but he isn't above having fun.
Appearance
Top's Lawyer is a medium-sized (possibly a bit small) pumpkin. Not much else to say.
Abilities
Top's Lawyer has lawyer abilities. Woo. He also has various magical abilities, from firing magic shots, transformations, and other strange magical abilities. His magical abilities aren't quite as developed as those of others, however, as he didn't study magic all the way.
Final Smash: T-Rex
Top’s Lawyer turns himself into a T-Rex and is invincible and has similar attacks to Giga Bowser.
Items
Pumpkin Staff
Top's Lawyer has a pumpkin staff that looks similar to Mumbo Jumbo's staff with the exception that it has a pumpkin on the end. No one knows where he obtained it.
Interactions with Other Characters
Top Mon Hit
- Main Article: Top Mon Hit
Top and Top's Lawyer have a very obvious relationship; Top is Top, and Top's Lawyer is Top's Lawyer. They're also good friends, and Top knows he can call upon Top's Lawyer when he needs to. Top was the reason Top's Lawyer joined the YB for a short time.
Kurpa von Koopworth
Top's Lawyer has some contempt towards Koopworth, as he knows of some of his unlawful practices. If he faces Koopworth in court--which has happened at least once--Top's Lawyer will attempt to point out any fallacies Koopworth may introduce into the trial.
Subsourian the Dark
- Main Article: Subsourian the Dark
Although their interactions have not been very many, it is assumed that the two get along well, given they are both magic users and they worked together in Tihnompot: Witchy Fury. The extent their friendship goes is unsure, however.
Trivia
- The idea for a pumpkin lawyer came during one of Topmonhit's bios for NSider. He told the reader to talk to his lawyer, then gave them a pumpkin and ran off. Later, he used the idea of a pumpkin for a lawyer for Top's Lawyer.
- For Halloween 2008, Top's Lawyer went as Mumbo Jumbo, or at least Mumbo Jumbo's skull.
