Donna Adelson Trial-Defense Opening Statement: ‘Only Theory, No Evidence' -Adelson's Lawyer Fights Back In a powerful counterpunch to the prosecution, Donna Adelson's defense attorney, Jackie Fulford, tells the jury: “You heard a lot about what other people did… but not a single piece of evidence shows Donna planned or intended this.  Donna is just a grandmother, not a crime boss. Fulford begins by honoring Dan Markel's legacy—he was “very well respected” and loved by his peers. She asks jurors to remember the human at the center of all the headlines. Then she frames her client: a 64-year-old woman, “kind,” “normal,” and dedicated to keeping her grandchildren connected—even after the family relational rifts. The defense admits the murder was “outrageous in its cruelty,” but draws a red line between motive and proof: motive alone doesn't equal guilt.  Fulford pushes back on the “headline‑grabbing” narrative, cautioning that the prosecution's storycast Donna atop a pyramid built on speculation. “Without evidence—only motive and theory—they put her at the top of this pyramid,” Fulford asserts. She brings a poignant, humanizing plea to jurors: “Why would this woman want to take away the father of her grandchildren?” The tone is calm, measured, and rooted in doubt—not emotion. This opening matters because it introduces the trial's central tension: proof vs. portrayal, fact vs. fiction. Whereas the prosecution constructs a drama of conspiracy, Fulford wants to collapse it into questions: Where's the evidence? What ties does Donna actually have to the crime? This segment provides a window into the skepticism the defense expects jurors to bring to the state's case. #DonnaAdelsonTrial #DefenseOpening #ReasonableDoubt #NoEvidence #FamilyMatters #TrueCrimeCourtroom #TrialByJury #LegalDefense #CustodyCase #DonnaIsNotAMastermind Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you a law firm owner looking for tips on making better decisions? In this episode of the Guild Live Show, host Tyson Mutrux explores the latest in AI and marketing. He demonstrates the AI agent "Comet" for workflow automation, discusses tracking cryptocurrency investments, and reflects on business decision-making inspired by Jeff Bezos' “two-way door” concept. Tyson talks about the AI agent, Comet that can be used for workflow automation. It is a great tool that helps you with your tasks and can act as a thinking partner. A great aspect of this tool is that it can build you a workflow which Tyson provides a demonstration for. You can ask Comet to create things for you, such as providing you a rundown of your monthly calendar. Tyson also speaks to the limitations of the platform, which can cause frustration. Tyson shares Amazon's “two way door” concept for making fast decisions. The concept is that if you walk through a door and don't like what you see, you can walk out. If something works for you, that is great. But, if something doesn't, you can stop doing it. As it relates to law firms, this is an important concept. If you are using a tool or process in your firm that does not work, it is completely fine to stop using it and find a better option.Listen in to learn more!1:16 Discussion about the Comet AI browser agent6:34 Observations on Comet's speed and limitations15:24 Amazon's “two way door” concept for fast, reversible decisions16:20 The two way door concept and its relevance to his firm's decision-makingTune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here.

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you looking for some tips on changing your mindset for the better? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer Podcast, Tyson interviews John Kormanik, a former trial attorney turned coach, about his journey overcoming limiting beliefs and the power of mindset. Tyson and John talk about the importance of mindset shifts when it comes to growth and success. For John, this involved thinking about how lucky he was to do certain things and to have a choice in the life he is living. This really shifted his relationships with his family as well as how he viewed himself. Mindset shifts are important for growth and success. Having a negative mindset can affect how your life moves forward. If you want to grow and succeed, you have to have the mindset necessary to reach that.John shares his insights on self-criticism and the effect it can have on people. Being self-critical and hard on yourself can really affect your mental health. The key is to show up and do the work for yourself. Attorneys in particular are risk averse and learn not to take the leap and keep things safe. Because of this, many are self-critical and don't think they are good enough. To get over this, it is important to think about what will happen if you fail and if you don't. Think about what the worst case scenario is and if it really will impact you in the long run. Most times, things are not as bad as you think, so letting things go a little bit can really save you from yourself.Listen in to learn more!6:48 How a mindset shift impacts personal growth17:29 John explains his coaching process28:00 How harsh self-criticism can cost opportunities 32:39 Discussion on how upbringing sets mental limits41:39 Advice for those unsure of their focusTune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here. Connect with John:Website Instagram Linkedin

“What does it mean if you receive a target letter from the United States Attorney's office?” With my background in federal criminal defense, I'll explain exactly what a target letter is, why the government sends them out, and what you should do if you ever find one in your mailbox. I'll share real-world examples from my own cases—involving everything from tax evasion to firearms—and walk you through the do's and don'ts when dealing with the feds. Most importantly, I'll explain why ignoring a target letter is never the right move, and what steps you need to take to protect yourself. Here are 3 key takeaways from the episode:A target letter is a warning, not a suggestion: If you've received one, it usually means the U.S. Attorney believes they have a case against you, and an indictment is likely.Don't ignore it—get a qualified criminal defense lawyer ASAP: The letter will often tell you to do just that. Ignoring it can have serious consequences, including being picked up unexpectedly or not having time to prepare a solid defense.Civil or transactional lawyers are not enough: Steve shares real-life cautionary tales of people following the wrong advice.

In today's episode, I chat with David Hoffman, a lawyer, mediator, and a founding member of Boston Law Collaborative. David was named "Lawyer of the Year" in Boston, and he even teaches at Harvard! I love how he's using IFS to help people with conflict. We talk about how IFS has shifted his focus from getting people to settle, to helping them make Self-led choices. We discuss: How does a lawyer and mediator bring the language of parts into a legal setting? What is the "reasonable reason" behind "unreasonable behavior" in conflict? How can we make decisions from a place of "Self-led" wisdom rather than from our "gladiator parts?" How can simply naming a part change the dynamic of a conversation? David shares an example of how saying "there's a greedy part" shifted a negotiation for the better. How does the IFS model help us understand ambivalence and the "negotiation within" that happens before we even enter a conflict? "There's something we can do here to enable people to manage their conflicts more successfully and to be less fearful and less hateful in the world." —David Hoffman I absolutely loved getting to know David and I'm so glad he's bringing the IFS model to a new audience. He's also offering a new six-week IFS training for lawyers and mediators this fall through the IFS Institute with guest appearances by Dick Schwartz, Mke Elkin, and Fatimah Finney. Episode Sponsor: This episode is sponsored by the Internal Family Systems institute. Join renowned attorney and mediator David Hoffman for a six-week live workshop starting this October.

There are people in the world who, at first glance (or second, or third), don't seem to me to deserve positive regard. At all. Maybe there are people like that for you, too.But in an ancient tale, five people are traveling through the forest: the leader, their beloved, a friend, a stranger, and a wicked person. The group is attacked, and one person must be sacrificed in return for safety for the rest. Whom should it be? The wicked person, if we're being just? The leader themself, if they're altruistic? But the answer is, no one.Because if we sacrifice anyone, then instead of spending our energy cultivating a warm and connected heart, we have to keep in mind who's in and who's out. We're in a constant process of “yes/no, yes/no,” “you but not you…,” as opposed to being in a constant process of listening, understanding, and caring.

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – America has become a very litigious society. That's probably why we have more lawyers than doctors. But our judicial system is very important. The First Amendment prohibits Congress from depriving us of our right to petition the government for redress of grievances. The most common way people seek redress is by lawsuit...

In all the noise about AI agents it's easy to miss a fundamental change that's taking place. For these agents to be effective, people have to feel safe delegating things to them. When we do?

Trumps court wins keep piling up, just as soon as he clears the pathetically weak barriers raised by the feckless, unelected, black-robed, tyrannical, inferior federal district court judges infected with Trump Derangement Syndrome and thrashing wildly as they continue to fail in their efforts to prevent Trump from saving our great nation.In this most recent court of appeals win for Trump, a three-judge panel out of the Fourth Circuit voted 2-1 to permanently stop a lower court oreder preventing DOGE teams from accessing government data.  If left in place this lower court order would have kneecapped the ability of DOGE to prevent billions of dollars from being stolen by the Progressive Left through waste, fraud, and abuse.Of particular interest in this decision, however, is the interesting approach the appellate court took to determining that the anti-DOGE forces had virtually zero chance of winning on the legal merits, and therefore the lower court ordering a stay was an outright abuse of discretion by that unelected, black-robed, tyrannical, inferior district trial court judge that the appellate court was legally bound to reverse.If this analysis were applied generally, it would implode every single lower court TRO and injunction that has been brought, is being brought, or would be brought against the Trump administration. The #1 guide for understanding when using force to protect yourself is legal.
