In today's episode, we're doing something a little different—we're actually talking about what you do learn in law school, specifically when it comes to those infamous final exams. I am joined by law student Troy Hendrickson, who's just wrapped up his second year and lived to tell the tale.If you've ever wondered what law school finals are really like, buckle up. Forget what you know about undergrad exams—here it's all about three to four hours of high-pressure essays that can make or break your entire grade. Think all-nighters fueled by way too much caffeine, stressing over whether you remember that one obscure case, and facing the reality of the dreaded law school curve.We swap stories about cramming, anonymous grading, 80-page outlines, and why actually learning the material trumps just memorizing it (no, you can't really fake it ‘til you make it here). They share practical advice—like how space repetition and making your own flashcards can save you, and why talking through arguments is key.Whether you're in law school, thinking about applying, or just curious about why law students always look so tired, this episode spills all the secrets. Grab your coffee—and maybe a Red Bull—because you're about to get the inside scoop on surviving law school finals!Key Moments00:00 "Beyond Law School Lessons"03:35 "Mastering Law School Tricks"07:06 Learning Law with Black's Dictionary09:22 Unique Law School Strategy13:49 "Judge Approach to Law Essays"17:37 "Learning Through Writing"19:47 Exam Success Through Self-Summarization23:08 Law School Case Discussion Process25:28 Effective Study Group StrategiesSubmit your questions to www.lawyertalkpodcast.com.Recorded at Channel 511.Stephen E.

Should you represent yourself in court? This topic came to mind after I watched a viral video of a defendant trying to go it alone in front of a judge down in Texas, and it got me thinking about the risks and realities of self-representation.Drawing from my own experiences—and remembering that classic line often attributed to Abraham Lincoln, “He who represents himself has a fool for a lawyer”—I'll share why even I, as a practicing attorney, would never want to represent myself, especially when the stakes are high. I'll walk you through situations where it might actually make sense to go solo, like a straightforward speeding ticket, but I'll also dig into the hidden dangers of navigating certain legal matters on your own, including issues with things like record sealing or expungement.Whether you're considering representing yourself or you just want to know more about how lawyers think through these decisions, stick around. I'll give you candid advice, real-world stories, and the practical insights you need before your day in court.Here are my top 3 takeaways:Representing Yourself is (Almost) Never a Good Idea: As the old saying goes (attributed to Abraham Lincoln!), “He who represents himself has a fool for a lawyer.” If there's any risk of jail time, don't go solo—hire a professional to ensure you keep perspective and make sound decisions.Minor Matters May (Rarely) Be an Exception: For low-stakes issues like minor traffic tickets, representing yourself might make sense—especially when the cost of a lawyer outweighs the penalty. But go in with realistic expectations and know you won't have the same leverage or results.Do-It-Yourself Can Backfire: Especially in complex matters (even non-criminal ones like sealing or expunging records), self-representation can unintentionally harm your future chances due to procedural missteps or legal technicalities.Submit your questions to www.lawyertalkpodcast.com.Recorded at Channel 511.Stephen E.

In this episode of The Higher Standard, we're joined by viral sensation turned courtroom assassin, Farshad Dehbozorgi, Esq. — or as we like to call him, “The Club-to-Courtroom Closer.” We dig into his unlikely journey from viral TikToks and bottle service to bar prep and building a boutique law firm. If you've ever wondered how roasting your wife online could land you a law license, this one's for you.➡️ Chris, Saied, Rajeil and Farshad get real about the grind of content creation, the misconceptions around being a creator, and how law, social media, and outrageous honesty can collide in one man's career. From being mistaken for a nightclub promoter to now negotiating with insurance companies and personal injury clients, Farshad proves that you really can go from “likes” to litigation — if you're bold (and delusional) enough.

I hear all the time: "How do some cases end up in the Ohio Supreme Court or even the U.S. Supreme Court so quickly, when most seem to crawl through the system?" I'll walk you through the usual process of appeals and then show you how certain hot-topic cases—like challenges to executive orders or big government actions—can take a legal shortcut. I'll explain how declaratory judgment actions and emergency appeals can move these issues straight to the top of the judicial ladder, sometimes almost overnight. If you've ever wondered why some court battles make the news so fast, or how the legal system decides what's urgent, this episode is for you. Moments00:00 Rapid Court Responses Explained03:52 Expedited Court Process ExplainedKey Takeaways:Fast-Track for Emergencies: Urgent or constitutionally significant cases (like challenges to executive orders or funding disputes) often get "fast tracked" to the Supreme Court via declaratory judgment actions and requests for immediate injunctions.Not Always About the Merits: Many times, the Supreme Court is ruling not on the actual underlying legal issue, but on procedural matters—like whether or not to grant a temporary restraining order, based on criteria like irreparable harm and likelihood of success.Emergency Appeals = Expedited Review: If a district or trial court issues (or declines to issue) an injunction, either party can seek an "emergency" or expedited appeal—helping cases bypass the usual, lengthy appellate process and land in front of the Supreme Court quickly.Submit your questions to www.lawyertalkpodcast.com.Recorded at Channel 511.Stephen E.

"What are the tax implications of shifting properties from short-term rental to long-term rental after leveraging cost segregation reports to accelerate depreciation to offset some W2 income?" – Cannot do both in same year; changes passive loss treatment. "Can you use short-term stock loss carryover to offset real estate depreciation recapture and capital gains?" – Yes, but only after specific tax code ordering rules.

In this “What's the Appeal?” episode, I'll walk you through the ins and outs of getting a case in front of the Ohio Supreme Court, unpacking the crucial difference between correcting mistakes at trial and tackling broader questions of law that really get the justices' attention. I'll explain why not every error at a lower court qualifies for supreme court review, what makes an issue important enough to reach that level, and exactly what lawyers need to argue to give their case a fighting chance. If you've ever wondered how cases get to the highest court in the state, what issues matter most, or what happens after you appeal, this episode will give you answers and a behind-the-scenes look at the process. Here are my top 3 takeaways:Not Every Case Makes It Up: The Ohio Supreme Court—and courts like it—aren't just there to correct mistakes from lower courts. There's a specific process (discretionary review) for cases with broader legal implications to get their attention.It's All About the Big Picture: You need to show that your case presents an important rule of law or policy issue. It's not enough to say there was a simple trial error; you have to prove there's a bigger constitutional or public interest at stake.Strategic Advocacy Matters: When appealing, it's crucial to frame your argument in a way that highlights why your issue should matter to everyone, not just your client. Reference broader legal trends and current interest (like the US Supreme Court taking up similar issues) to strengthen your case for review.Submit your questions to www.lawyertalkpodcast.com.Recorded at Channel 511.Stephen E.

I'm digging deeper into what it's really like to consult with a lawyer—especially when it comes to criminal defense. I'll walk you through a recent experience from my own practice, where a well-meaning inquiry turned into an intensive back-and-forth with countless emails and complex attachments. This got me thinking about the fine line between offering initial guidance and the reality that, just like Abraham Lincoln said, a lawyer's time is their stock in trade.I'll talk about how I try to strike a balance during consultations—being as helpful as possible without crossing into doing unpaid work, and why sometimes the expectations between lawyers and clients can get a little blurred. I'll also share why, even in our Zoom-heavy world, I still value face-to-face meetings whenever possible. Whether you've wondered what goes on behind the scenes or you're thinking of engaging a lawyer yourself, I'll give you an honest look at how to set reasonable expectations and get the most out of your legal consultation. Thanks for tuning in to Lawyer Talk!Here are my top 3 takeaways:Boundaries Matter: While initial consultations are important, there's a point where a lawyer moves from consulting to doing substantive work. Lawyers need to protect their time (their “stock in trade”), and clients should understand when reviewing extensive case materials may require formal engagement.Communication is Key: Misunderstandings can happen about what's covered in a free consultation. Clear expectations—on both sides—help avoid frustration and ensure everyone is on the same page from the start.The Process Has Changed: The pandemic shifted the way lawyers and clients connect, with fewer in-person meetings and more reliance on digital communications. Nonetheless, a face-to-face meeting (even virtual) can still be an important step in building trust.Got a question you want answered on the podcast? Call 614-859-2119 and leave us a voicemail.

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Adam Ouellette discuss:The long-term impact of unmanaged stress in the legal professionShifting from reactive to responsive behavior in work and lifeThe necessity of integrating systems, organization, and delegation in law practicesExploring effective breathing and mindfulness practices for emotional regulation Key Takeaways:Most lawyers suffer from nervous system dysregulation due to chronic stress, which leads to physical symptoms like migraines, arrhythmia, and burnout.Heart-focused breathing, specifically the “Quick Coherence” method, can physiologically shift the body from fight-or-flight into healing mode in just minutes.Using modern legal tech tools like CRMs, automation software, and client management systems can drastically reduce workload and prevent burnout, but most lawyers resist adopting them.Implementing micro-pauses every 50 minutes for breathwork and short breaks can significantly reduce mental fatigue and boost long-term performance. "It's so critical that lawyers start to quiet their mind and regulate their nervous systems, because if you don't, you're gonna hit a wall at some point in your practice, and you're not gonna like it.

It's one that focuses on stability of cash flows over time.” The panel discusses why shifting your mindset from maximizing account balances to managing sustainable cash flow is key to peace of mind. Work, Entrepreneurship, and Purpose Play Critical Roles in a Modern Retirement Kerry Hannon points out that working longer—whether through career extension, entrepreneurship, or passion projects—can boost both financial security and life satisfaction. “How can you continue to work longer? It's a dramatic way to give yourself some security in retirement if you can stay working longer.” The episode explores creative ways Gen X and boomers are redefining "retirement." There's No One-Size-Fits-All: Frameworks vs. Rules Roger Whitney insists that “the answer to almost every question...is ‘It depends'.” No single formula fits everyone; a personalized, evolving plan that balances what you want out of life with practical financial strategies is essential. The episode delves into why regular reviews and customized “guardrails” are more important than rigid withdrawal rules. Guardrails, Buckets, and Behavioral Coaching Are More Vital Than Ever Jamie Hopkins and Dana Anspach review popular strategies like bucket and guardrails approaches, emphasizing that tools and behavioral coaching work best when tailored to each retiree's unique needs and anxieties. Jamie also warns about new financial threats: “I think that fraud...is going to become rampant. It's the biggest concern out there...it's a big concern.” Call-to-Action If you've been feeling uncertain about your own retirement income plan, here's your assignment for the week: Take 30 minutes to map out your expected sources of income in retirement—pensions, Social Security, savings, investments—and identify any potential gaps.

If one thing can be said about these two preternaturally gorgeous queens' podcast, it's that Trixie and Katya find the sheer, unadulterated beauty of pure insanity. Tune in every week to experience the auditory pleasure that is The Bald and the Beautiful with Trixie and Katya. #TrixieMattel #KatyaZamo #BaldBeautiful Learn more about your ad choices.
