remove "posted by admin" on Lawyer theme

Add this to custom css or child theme css.

.posted-by {
display: none;
}

that didnt work

I think you need something more like this:

ul.admin-post li:first-of-type {
    display: none;
}

Edit: I don’t think the above will work in IE8 and older. The next will get you IE7 but I’m not positive about my syntax:

.admin-post li:first-child {
    display: none;
}

where do I insert that Bill?

As above: you’ll either want to use a custom css plugin (which you can find here), or put it in the style sheet of a child theme.

If you’re just getting going with your site, a child theme is (I think) the best way to make changes to your theme without losing those changes when the original theme gets updated. (A custom css plugin will give you the same benefit in this case, since you’re only changing styles.) Creating a child theme is actually fairly simple for something like this.

Anyway, try the second example I gave above and see if that does it for you.

bill you are the freaking man!!!!!!

i went with theme junkie and put in your code you suggested!!!

thanks, i love this community! very very helpful!

Ha! Your assessment may be off by a tiny bit, but I’m glad it worked out for you. Best. (Right about the community, though.)
