Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you a law firm owner looking for ways to build team culture? In this episode, Kevin Cheney, a law firm owner and co-founder, shares how intentional culture-building can be for a firm's growth. He explains why culture—more than marketing or processes—drives retention, recruitment, client experience, and resilience. He offers a practical three-step framework for leaders to assess, envision, and build their ideal culture.Kevin shares some steps to building culture for a firm. The first is what your culture is today. Be brutally honest with yourself and admit what you are doing right and wrong. Another thing is to think about the future of this culture. Map out a five year plan - what needs to change and how can you change it. From there, decide what is important for your firm to have in order to be successful. At the end of the day, a positive team culture drives retention and improves employee experience. It is important to ensure your employees bond so they can work better together. Create opportunities for your staff to connect. For Kevin, he organizes happy hours and potlucks as ways for employees to have some fun and disconnect. Another option is to organize team bonding activities that build confidence and trust. Ensure to make these optional so staff are not forced but encouraged to participate.Listen in to learn more!1:07 Intentionality in Marketing, Processes, and Culture2:27 Defining Culture in a Law Firm6:51 Three Steps to Building Culture10:40 Facilitating Employee Bonding13:29 Employee Ownership MentalityTune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here. Connect with Kevin:Website  Facebook  Linkedin 

Not all clients are created equal—and some quietly drain your firm's time, energy, and profits. In episode 593 of the Lawyerist Podcast, Stephanie Everett talks with Affinity Consulting's Jeff Krause about the hidden cost of bad clients and how law firms can use data to make better decisions about who they serve.  Jeff breaks down his Moneyball-inspired profit formula to show how client quality impacts leads, conversion rates, revenue, and margins. They explore why discount-seeking clients create compounding damage, how setting clearer expectations can improve client behavior, and when it makes sense to let certain clients walk away. A closer look at the tension between profitability and access to justice, and how intentional business models can support both.    Listen to our previous episodes about Client Experience & Law Firm Profitability:  Episode #384 – Delivering Bad News to Clients, with Marjorie Aaron — Apple | Spotify | LTN  Episode #462: Designing an Empathetic Client Experience, with Kirk Simoneau — Apple | Spotify | LTN  Episode #474: Moneyball for Lawyers, with Jeff Krause — Apple | Spotify | LTN  Episode #560 – Stop Doing Everything Yourself!

Sean "Diddy" Combs has bolstered his legal team by adding two new high-profile attorneys: Anthony Ricco, a renowned trial lawyer, and Alexandra Shapiro, an appellate expert. This decision comes amid his ongoing legal battle after his September 2024 arrest on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering. Combs is accused of being involved in a wide-ranging conspiracy, leading to a highly publicized case. His legal team is now making a third attempt to secure his release on bail after previous denials.In their latest filing, Combs' defense proposed a $50 million bail package, which included stringent conditions such as no female visitors outside his family. Despite this, U.S. District Judge Andrew Carter denied the request, citing concerns that Combs remained a danger to the public. His lawyers continue to argue for his release, claiming that he is innocent and poses no flight risk.(commercial at 9:30)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Diddy enlists high-powered legal team for THIRD bail attempt... two weeks after his arrest for sex trafficking charges | Daily Mail Online

What happens when two female lawyers from different countries realize they're fighting the same battles? In this powerful conversation, Erin sits down with Odette Ansell—a Canadian litigator and host of the Non-Billable Hours podcast—to talk about the universal struggles female lawyers face: loneliness, identity crisis, the pressure to "have it all," and the desperate need for community. They discuss why it's so hard to separate your identity from your job, what to do when you feel stuck, and why vulnerability might be the bravest thing you do as a lawyer. If you've ever felt like you're the only one crumbling while everyone else looks like they're crushing it—this episode is your reminder that you're not alone.About Odette AnsellOdette Ansell is a Canadian litigator and the host of Non-Billable Hours, a podcast dedicated to honest conversations about life in and beyond the law.

Through her thoughtful interviews, she explores the common challenges many lawyers experience but rarely voice. Her work aims to build community, normalize vulnerability, and remind lawyers that their identities extend far beyond their billable targets.Key Topics CoveredWhy Odette became a lawyer (and the personality test that said she'd be terrible at litigation)The universal struggles female lawyers face—regardless of country or practice areaWhy lawyers desperately need people who "get it" without needing contextThe loneliness epidemic in the legal profession (especially for women)How to separate your identity from your job when being a lawyer IS your personalityThe seasons of life and why "having it all" doesn't mean having it all at onceWhy women lawyers feel guilty for wanting something outside the lawThe bad advice that made Odette delete her food blog in law schoolHow to find community when you work from home and feel isolatedThe power of saying your goals out loud (even if you don't know how to achieve them)Why vulnerability is so hard for lawyers (and why we desperately need it)The retreats that made Erin realize: "These women get me at a visceral level"Connect with Odette AnsellPodcast: Non-Billable Hours (YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts)Instagram: @nonbillablehourspodcastWant to connect with Odette about building community, navigating identity outside the law, or just chat about life as a lawyer?

Laurie Pascoe practiced law in Ottawa, Ontario for more than forty years while writing over fifty articles, teaching continuing legal education, and serving thousands of clients. In this episode, Laurie explains why lawyers must evolve, how client service impacts malpractice claims, and why thinking like a client can make your legal practice more effective and more enjoyable.Lawyer Side HustlesWriting has been Laurie's creative and intellectual outlet. He has written articles for lawyers and articles for clients, using writing as a way to educate, clarify legal issues, and reduce client overwhelm. Long before law firm websites were common, he built one of the first in Ottawa and filled it with free educational content. He also became one of the earliest lawyers in the region to advertise legally after restrictions were lifted.“I had so many articles that when the internet came along, I had a million things to throw on my website right away,” shares Laurie Pascoe in Episode 79 of You Are a Lawyer.His most significant project became his book, Innovative Legal Service Applications: A Guide to Improved Client Services, published by the ABA. For Laurie, these writing projects were not hobbies. They were a way to teach lawyers, improve client outcomes, and share practical tools to help the profession evolve. His side work helped shape how many lawyers think about systems, client service, and ethics.This episode is produced by Skip the Boring Stuff, a podcast strategy company for business owners and creatives.

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Colleen Joyce discuss:Failing fast while managing riskBuilding a competitive legal practice intentionallyTreating sales as listening and diagnosisLeading and adapting for the future of law Key Takeaways:Test ideas quickly and learn from small, recoverable failures. Avoid high-stakes decisions that can jeopardize the entire business. Fast iteration builds resilience in a rapid attention and news cycle.Strong branding is essential in a crowded legal market. Lawyers must understand marketing and business, not just legal skills. Personal brand and visibility increasingly determine growth and opportunity.Effective sales begins with asking questions and listening deeply. Clients commit when they feel understood, not when they are pitched.  A clear diagnosis must come before proposing solutions or pricing.Know your strengths and hire to cover gaps. Transparency and honesty strengthen leadership and team trust. Investing in technology, efficiency, and learning is required to stay competitive. "I know lawyers don't like to hear this, but they are salespeople, just like every other job." —  Colleen Joyce Check out my new show, Be That Lawyer Coaches Corner, and get the strategies I use with my clients to win more business and love your career again. Ready to go from good to GOAT in your legal marketing game?

The Context of White Supremacy welcomes Camilo Eugenio Lund-Montaño live from Puerto Rico. Gus intends to find out right quick of Lund-Montaño is classified as a White person. White reading Evelyn Williams' Inadmissible Evidence in the Katherine Massey Book Club, Gus was struck by her commentary on the influx of White lawyers during the so called Civil Rights Movement. Williams was suspicious of their presence and wondered if their primary objective was to bolster their White reputations by representing “militant” negroes or if they were in some way connected to the widespread COINTELPRO campaigns of subversion to undermine attempts to Produce Justice. This led Gus to find Lund-Montaño's report: Out of Order: Radical Lawyers and Social Movements in the Cold War. This work examines the history of mostly White lawyers involvements with numerous non-white people and campaigns during the 1900s. It highlights how the National Lawyer's Guild, the American Bar Association, and the field of law in general was - and remains - overwhelmingly White and insufficiently concerned with countering Racism or aiding non-white attorneys and judges. It's noteworthy that NLG switched their focus to issues of sexism/White Women in the middle of the so called Civil Rights Movement. Nigh on 2026, White females are the growing majority of law school students, while black dudes represent one of the tiniest groups allowed to practice law. #RevJimJones #DrMarcusFoster INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#

As a student athlete in Central High School, Tom Singer saw how his African American teammates had very different experiences than he did. This observation fueled his work as an ally in the 1960s civil rights movement.  Tom leveraged his law degree to challenge discrimination, filing a case against a local gym that charged African Americans more for memberships, challenged discriminatory treatment against incarcerated Muslims, and many other actions that pushed for real, meaningful change.  As Tom looked back on the changes from the 1960s into the 21st century, he saw progress. He also saw a need for more. His story reveals the ongoing struggle for racial justice in South Bend._____This episode mentions a 1963 Testimony on Fair Housing held at the University of Notre Dame. Click hereto see text from that.

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you a firm owner looking for ways to integrate AI into your business? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer Podcast, Richard interviews Hamid Kohan, founder of Law Practice AI, about the rapid impact of AI and technology on law firm operations. Hamid introduces his three-part power model and discusses how these elements are transforming legal staffing, operations, and profitability. Hamid shares his three-part power model and how it can change hiring for firms. The model includes ⅓ local staff, ⅓ virtual staff and ⅓ AI. Including some of each can really transform a law firm and allow operations and staffing to benefit from aspects that might seem very different. Virtual staff can cut down your costs and AI can allow you to figure out ways to take some work away from busy local staff and simplify it.There are areas of a firm that would thrive using AI. AI can supplement what is going on and shift people into more customer facing roles where they are helping clients. Roles like legal assistance, document collections and document summaries can benefit from the use of AI.

They walk you through what cops can and can't do during a traffic stop when they detect the scent of marijuana, explaining how the Fourth Amendment and recent legal changes affect searches, privacy rights, and law enforcement actions.Together, they break down the evolution from the days when the mere odor of marijuana was enough for a search, to today's more complex landscape where medical and even recreational use of marijuana has changed the legal calculus. They explain how “probable cause” is no longer as simple as it used to be, why the plain smell doctrine isn't as clear-cut, and what this means for drivers, law enforcement, and anyone interested in constitutional rights.If you've ever wondered how legalization affects your rights on the road—or if you just enjoy following the ever-changing world of criminal law—this is an episode you won't want to miss. Moments00:00 "Fourth Amendment and Automotive Exception"03:55 Ohio's Plain Smell Doctrine Explained08:06 "Probable Cause and Police Inquiry"10:45 "Law and Society Evolving"Here are 3 key takeaways:The “Plain Smell Doctrine” Isn't What It Used To Be: The once-clear rule that the odor of marijuana gave police probable cause to search your car is now muddy in Ohio and other states with legalized cannabis. Police must consider if there's a legal reason for the odor before jumping to conclusions.Legalization Shifts the Burden: With legal medical and recreational marijuana, officers should now do more investigating before deciding to search. Simply smelling marijuana isn't enough—they need facts pointing toward illegality.Know Your Rights: If you're ever pulled over and marijuana is involved, you aren't required to answer all questions. Like Steve Palmer emphasized, politely exercising your right to remain silent could matter more than ever as courts adapt to new laws.Got a question you want answered on the podcast?

Dawn Anderson is the Chief Human Resources Officer at Butler Snow LLP, a law firm with nearly 400 lawyers across 25 offices. With more than 30 years of HR experience and both an MBA and law degree from the University of Georgia, Dawn brings a unique perspective to law firm leadership. After two decades in HR leadership roles in retail and manufacturing, Dawn transitioned to the legal industry where she now oversees Butler Snow's HR function and operations. She has taught as an adjunct professor teaching college-level courses and facilitating countless training seminars on leadership, management, and human resources. She is also an active member of the Atlanta Association of Legal Administrators, where she previously served as board member and chapter president. WHAT'S COVERED IN THIS EPISODE ABOUT STRATEGIC HR LEADERSHIP Law firms often treat HR as a cost center or an administrative function that handles paperwork, processes bonuses, and deals with employee issues when they come up. But there's often a disconnect between what HR professionals actually do and how lawyers value that work. Administrative leaders get kept out of important conversations, even when those decisions directly affect people and performance. When HR leadership operates strategically and lawyers work with the professionals who understand people management, things change. Compensation systems become transparent and defensible instead of feeling like a black box. People get prepared for leadership roles instead of being promoted and left to figure it out. And firms make smarter decisions about retention, hiring, and succession planning because the work gets more intentional instead of reactive. In this episode of The Lawyer's Edge, Elise Holtzman is joined by Dawn Anderson to discuss building credibility as an HR leader in a law firm, why lawyers sometimes undervalue the work administrative professionals do, and how strategic people management changes both culture and business results. 2:49 - Dawn's journey from chemical engineering to HR with a JD and MBA 6:37 - Why lawyers sometimes undervalue administrative professionals 8:33 - Taking five years to get into the bonus process at her previous firm 9:33 - Creating a defensible bonus system in hours instead of days 14:42 - Building trust and credibility with attorneys using The First 90 Days approach 17:31 - The challenge of recruiting legal assistants in today's market 21:30 - Pairing experienced legal assistants with new attorneys as a training tool 24:18 - What "revenue enablers" means and why language matters 26:39 - Change management without the corporate jargon 28:28 - Getting the right people in the right seats 30:30 - Preparing people for partnership instead of just promoting them 33:32 - Why investing in people beats losing them to firms that will 38:04 - HR is everyone's job, not just HR's job MENTIONED IN HOW STRATEGIC HR TRANSFORMS LAW FIRM PERFORMANCE Butler Snow LLP | LinkedIn Dawn Anderson on LinkedIn The First 90 Days by Michael D.

Sponsored by EasyDNS https://easydns.com/NotOnRecord ## Episode Description In Episode 194 of Not on Record, seasoned Canadian criminal defense lawyers Joseph Neuberger and Michael Lacy dive deep into the realities of jury trials in Canada. Sparked by a recent National Post article exploring the inner workings of juries, they debate whether they'd choose a jury or a judge-alone trial if charged with a serious offense. The discussion covers the impact of the 2019 abolition of peremptory challenges, the challenges of selecting an impartial jury in today's polarized climate, the importance of storytelling and engagement in jury addresses, cultural shifts affecting civic duty and bias, and why many defense lawyers now lean toward bench trials especially in sexual assault cases. With candid insights from decades of trial experience, dog interruptions, and a call to restore peremptory challenges, this episode is a raw look at the strengths, flaws, and uncertainties of Canada's jury system.

Episode #137 of Work Comp Talk breaks down the real secrets to winning big money in California Workers' Comp even AFTER you've been fired, and yes, even if you quit, got laid off, or your boss is pushing you out.  In this new segment, hosts Carmen Ramirez and Bilal Kassem uncover one of the most misunderstood rules in CA Work Comp: Post-Termination Defense, the rule that scares injured workers into thinking they lose all benefits the moment they leave their job. According to attorney Bilal, quitting or getting terminated does not automatically take away your rights under this rule, as long as your injury happened before the termination notice or is properly documented. They also explain what the law actually says, the biggest mistakes workers make, and the top 5 ways to strengthen your case even after termination.    Takeaways:  Quitting does not automatically forfeit workers' compensation rights.  Post-termination defense prevents false claims after termination.  Documenting injuries is crucial for pursuing claims.  Cumulative trauma injuries may not be recognized until later.  Employers can retaliate against employees who file claims.  Consulting a lawyer is advisable for navigating claims.  Insurance companies, not employers, are responsible for claims.  Understanding your financial situation is important before quitting.  Myths about workers' compensation can lead to misinformation.    Chapters:  00:00 Understanding Post-Termination Defense  06:31 Navigating Injuries and Employment Status  10:07 Five Essential Steps Before Quitting  14:45 Myths About Workers' Compensation Rights    This episode is sponsored by Pacific Workers, The Lawyers for Injured Workers, the trusted workers' compensation law firm in Northern California.

If you've ever wondered how verdicts really work, what rights defendants have, and whether prosecutors can get a second chance after a loss in court, you won't want to miss this insightful episode.Welcome back to Lawyer Talk! In this episode, host Steve Palmer dives into a recent Columbus, Ohio case involving police officer Connor Grubbs, who was acquitted of homicide-related charges after a controversial shooting incident. While the case sparked plenty of heated debate, today's focus is on a fascinating legal question: can the government appeal an acquittal if they disagree with the verdict?Drawing from his decades of criminal defense experience, Steve Palmer breaks down why—thanks to the Fifth Amendment and double jeopardy protections—the answer is a firm “no.” He also sheds light on those rare exceptions when a government CAN appeal, such as when evidence is suppressed before trial. Got a legal question? Steve Palmer invites listeners to reach out for future episodes at LawyerTalkPodcast.com.Key Takeaways:No Appeals After Acquittal: Once a jury finds a defendant not guilty, the government cannot appeal the verdict. This is a fundamental protection for defendants in our justice system.Limited Exceptions Exist: The government can sometimes appeal pre-trial rulings—such as when crucial evidence is suppressed—but only before trial and never after an acquittal.Double Jeopardy Protection: The Fifth Amendment's double jeopardy clause prevents the government from putting someone on trial for the same crime more than once, cementing the acquittal as final.Got a question you want answered on the podcast?
