Ivo the Honest lawyer
Feast Day: May 19
(or Ives, Ybus, Yvo, Ivo of Helory)
Patron Saint of Lawyers l Advocates l

As early as the 14th century,
about St. Ivo it was said:
Sanctus Ivo erat Brito,
Advocatus et non latro, Res miranda populo.
Loosely translated:
St. Ives was from
the land of beef,
A lawyer, and not a
thief;
A stretch on popular belief.
