When we posted a 60 second video giving the answer to the question of, 'can someone record you without your permission?' across our social media channels, it very quickly, and unsurprisingly got over 100,000 views, simply because the answer to this question is full of myths and is unknown to many.Like it or loath it, we are living in a digital age and recording and posting videos has become a massive part of every-day life; No matter how old you are, and at what stage of your life you are in, with over 98% of our population owning a smartphone, the temptation is always high to instantaneously record and share something funny, entertaining or shocking. TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and other popular platforms are crowded with video recordings, good, bad and indifferent.But is it illegal for someone to record you, and to post, forward or to use that recording without your permission? What can be deemed as your consent, and what steps can you take if you do not want a recording of you to be posted or shared?In this informative episode, we debunk the jargon, as Hatti Suvari and senior Barrister Tim Sampson bring you interesting, insightful and jargon free information, specifically covering 'individuals' recording other individuals, as always, in plain and simple English. 

In a split second a person can become a killer or be killed. A One Punch Killer is when someone throws a single punch that results in a death, and often when the perpetrator does not intend to kill, but nevertheless, a single punch that has a devastating effect. But how is this dealt by our laws, when an unfortunate and unexpected criminal act is carried out, when the intention was not to kill and possibly the only intention was to have a good old-fashioned street brawl? Would the perpetrator be given any leniency in law? Controversy surrounds this topic; with questions being asked on ‘what is a fair price for someone to pay for causing a death, even though it was unintended?'. In some cases, it has been argued that long prison sentences should not be handed out due to an unfortunate event of death not being the intention by the accused, whilst campaigners demand tougher sentences. In this episode senior Barrister Simon Spence KC and Hatti Suvari will bring you interesting, insightful and jargon free conversation that you will hear nowhere else! As always in plain and simple English.

Statistically, and unfortunately, 70% of business partnerships ultimately fail. That is a very big number that cannot be ignored if you are in a business partnership, or if you are considering going in to a partnership. There are various reasons why a business partnership could come to an end; sometimes these partnerships end voluntarily, and sometimes it is as a result of ongoing differences of opinion, or even a nasty fall-out. Parting with a business partner is literally a term that we call 'Commercial Divorce'.  In this informative and interesting episode, Hatti Suvari and senior Barrister Tim Sampson bring you key and important points for you to consider along with their top tips, when thinking about, or during the process of parting of ways with your business partner. This episode takes you from the top of how different business partnerships are structured; addressing those that may be 'pushed out', and what you need to  consider if you are heading for a commercial divorce, as always in plain and simple English.

Since 2010, the nonprofit Free Law Project has been working to make the legal ecosystem more equitable and competitive using technology, data and advocacy. It may be best known for CourtListener, its flagship project that houses an immense collection of court orders and opinions, and for its RECAP suite, which is the largest free collection on the internet of court filings and dockets.  But there is a lot more to the Free Law Project, as you will hear from our guest on today's episode, Michael Lissner, the Free Law Project's cofounder, executive director, and chief technology officer. Lissner started the Free Law Project while earning his master's degree at the University of California Berkeley School of Information, with the assistance of cofounder Brian Carver, who was then an assistant professor at the school and who is now copyright counsel at Google. Since then, the Free Law Project has expanded into a multifaceted source of legal data and tools, all with the goals of providing free access to legal materials and developing technology to enhance legal research and innovation.  The Free Law Project's data also supports a range of academic research and investigative journalism, including having provided data that fueled the recent Pulitzer Prize awarded to news organization ProPublica for its reporting on the financial conflicts of Supreme Court justices.    Thank You To Our Sponsors This episode of LawNext is generously made possible by our sponsors.

It may shock you to know that the death penalty, also referred to as Capital Punishment, is still practised in 55 countries around the World, and in 27 states of America. In this super interesting and eye-opening episode, senior Barrister Simon Spence KC and Hatti Suvari have light conversation around the crimes that can result in the death penalty, the shocking time lapses between sentencing and actual execution, and what people ‘for' and ‘against' the Death Penalty have to say. Hatti and Simon bring jargon free, entertaining conversation, as always, in plain and simple English.

John is joined by Professor Song Sang-Hyun, retired Professor of Law at Seoul National University and former President of the International Criminal Court.  Professor Song explains the origins of the Korean civil justice system which is based upon the German system by way of Japan.  He discusses  how after World War II, American Army officers drafted many of Korea's statutes and, in the past two decades, American law in fields such as corporate law, shipping and aviation law, antitrust law, securities regulations, intellectual property, and class action lawsuits have increasingly influenced Korean law.  They then discuss Korean pretrial practice which does not involve voluminous document discovery or any depositions and often involves the trial judge also acting as a mediator.  Professor Song explains some of the unique aspects of Korean trial practice including Korea's recent adoption of juries that render advisory decisions on disputed facts and that cases average less than a year from filing through trial.  They also discuss that the loser must pay the winner's attorneys' fees, although, in practice, courts tend to award less than all the fees incurred.  Finally, they discuss some of the emerging issues in Korean law including labor, environmental and privacy law as well as the protection of personal information.Podcast Link: Law-disrupted.fmHost: John B.

NFTs may not be fungible, but they are transferable, and they are sometimes stolen with no traditional recourse. The PLRB crew discuss Bored Apes, acronyms, whether pixels are physical, and whether the internet is just a fad. Coverage topics include direct physical loss, special limits of liability, Property Not Covered, and more.   Notable Timestamps   [ 00:38 ] - An erstwhile member of the Bored Ape Yacht Club clicked a malicious link and his NFTs were transferred to an unknown source. The police were unable to assist.   [ 01:06 ] - An NFT or “Non-Fungible Token” is a digital certificate of ownership residing on a blockchain. In the art world, someone may be the true owner of a piece of art while the actual piece of art is stored elsewhere, and even if someone makes a copy. NFTs apply that same logic to digital art and other media.   [ 06:03 ] - Several courts have held that the loss of NFTs is not considered a “direct physical loss.” The microchip is physical, but the information on it is not.   [ 09:00 ] - Special Limits of Liability likely do not apply. However, an argument could be made that NFTs fall under the policy language for “securities, accounts, deeds, evidences of debt, letters of credit, notes other than bank notes, manuscripts, personal records, passports, tickets and stamps.”   [ 11:17 ] - Newer “Property Not Covered” provisions often discuss digital currency, but NFTs are not considered currency. The defining characteristic of currency is that it is fungible: any dollar is exchangeable with any other dollar. On the other hand, NFTs are by definition non-fungible.   [ 13:12 ] - Just like traditional art, experts may be needed to evaluate the worth of NFTs.   [ 16:01 ] - Tim provides a recap of the scenario and the points above.   Your PLRB Resources   Coverage Questions on “Is the missing digital art covered property?” - https://search.plrb.org/?dn=80503&src=gsa and https://search.plrb.org/?dn=79717&src=gsa   Homeowners annotation on digital currency - https://search.plrb.org/?dn=80104&src=gsa   Webinar on “The Great Bitcoin Robbery Caper” - https://www.plrb.org/distlearn/webinars/vplayer.cfm?vid=w0130   Employees of member companies also have access to a searchable legal database, hundreds of hours of video trainings, building code materials, weather data, and even the ability to have your coverage questions answered by our team of attorneys (https://www.plrb.org/container.cfm?conlink=sec/cq/default.cfm) at no additional charge to you or your company.   Subscribe to this Podcast   Your Podcast App - Please subscribe and rate us on your favorite podcast app   YouTube - Please like and subscribe at @plrb   LinkedIN - Please follow at “Property and Liability Resource Bureau”   Send us your Scenario!   Please reach out to us with your scenario!

What do AI voice clones, $3,000 in wired cash, a lost wedding ring, and a Toledo prison have in common? This episode on the coverage issues presented when a family member-- or a business-- falls for a scam. The team discusses the various types of scams out there and what may and may not be covered under most insurance policies.   Notable Timestamps   [ 00:18 ] - Grandma got a call from someone claiming to represent a charity. She wired $3,000 to an overseas account. Her family researched and found the company did not exist, and helped her file a claim with her insurance company.    [ 01:15 ] - Mike & Alissha discuss their personal experiences with scams of this nature, and Tim warns of the dangers of A.I. voice clones.   [ 05:21 ] - Banks don't always refund money in situations like this, drawing a distinction between “scams” and “fraud.”   [ 08:38 ] - Money is considered personal property under Coverage C, but it is typically subject to a special limit, recently in the range of $200 - $300. This likely still applies even if the money is not physical cash, but electronically held or wired funds. Cryptocurrency, commonly used in these types of scams, may not be considered money.   [ 11:36 ] - Insurers do not distinguish between “scams” and “frauds” when it comes to “theft.” The intent to deprive the insured of their possession qualifies it as a theft.   [ 14:36 ] - Tim discusses a tangential scenario where a wedding ring is lost in the insured's luggage.   [ 15:35 ] - Commercial policies do have an exclusion for “voluntary parting,” holding businesses to a higher standard than homeowners.   [ 17:15 ] - Tim provides a recap of the scenario and the points above.   Your PLRB Resources   Homeowners annotation on theft - https://search.plrb.org/?dn=135&src=gsa   CE course on Special Limits of Liability - https://www.plrb.org/public2/dislearn/description.cfm?mod=p0008   Voluntary Parting of Money by a Wire Transfer Scam - https://search.plrb.org/?dn=58693&src=gsa   Employees of member companies also have access to a searchable legal database, hundreds of hours of video trainings, building code materials, weather data, and even the ability to have your coverage questions answered by our team of attorneys (https://www.plrb.org/container.cfm?conlink=sec/cq/default.cfm) at no additional charge to you or your company.   Subscribe to this Podcast   Your Podcast App - Please subscribe and rate us on your favorite podcast app   YouTube - Please like and subscribe at @plrb   LinkedIN - Please follow at “Property and Liability Resource Bureau”   Send us your Scenario!   Please reach out to us with your scenario!

Do you want to know what your deepest divorce Super Power is? Of course you do! Take my brand new quiz and discover more about yourself and the super power you possess that will take you through divorce into your dream life. https://thedivorcerehab.com/quiz-start-site-podcast For a woman from a household with two incomes or a wife relying on their former spouse as the breadwinner — going through a divorce can be downright horrifying. What happens when you think you are left with "nothing"?  Join me in this powerful episode with Certified Divorce Financial Analyst, Lisa Zeiderman, who shares valuable nuggets to help you address your finances with less stress.  ▶️ How to Navigate Complex Financial Issues and Find Empowerment Through Your Finances with Lisa Zeiderman. ✔️ As a matrimonial attorney, CFL, and a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst, Lisa Zeiderman shares her inspiring origin story of helping women and families go through a divorce. After getting into the fashion business at 18, she survived a divorce and custody case. "What most people find frustrating is a lack of responsiveness. I experienced the same with my attorneys. The client needs to feel we have their back. I decided then that I could be helpful to people. And so that's why I ended up going to law school." ✔️ There's so much emotion tied to divorce when divorce is a business transaction, yet we bring that emotional piece into it, especially regarding our finances. Lisa shares that women need to be reassured that they can go through the process less stressed. In consultations, two main issues must be addressed: custody of the children and finances.  ✔️ Achieving a less complicated divorce process and a rewarding future requires setting reasonable expectations as early as possible. Divorce is hard, but you must be kinder to yourself and allow others to come in and give you the strong support you need.  ✔️ No matter what the situation, divorce disputes are resolvable. People have to realize that it is a marathon and not a sprint. Lisa establishes that the lack of understanding makes divorce scary and way more stressful for many women. Her essential piece of advice: don't let that fear control YOU. Resources and services are available to help you start separating the emotion from the financial element of divorce. ✔️ Do not do divorce by yourself. You want reliable and credible people in your corner, explaining the law, the finances, and the psychological aspects of the divorce process. It would be best if you had a passionate and empathetic team who has your best intentions in their mind. Are you clamming up pursuing your legal separation, or are you ready to open the door for better resolution and positive outcomes?  Let us come to your rescue and make this divorce your life's most significant gift.  ______________________________________________________________ Lisa Zeiderman is Managing Partner at Miller Zeiderman LLP, based in New York.

In this episode, we meet with Inna Ptitsyna from Kyiv, Ukraine. Inna Ptitsyna is Product Communications Manager at Lawrina. With Inna, we explore the importance of access to legal information. Legal information is essential for individuals to understand their rights and obligations under the law, but not everyone has equal access to this information. We begin by discussing the challenges that people face in accessing legal information, including the cost of legal services and the complexity of legal language. We also examine the impact that this lack of access can have on individuals. We continue exploring how different technological solutions can help Access the Law, also beyond different jurisdictions and Inna tells us the story of Lawrina and how it all began for their team. Lawrina is really ambitious in content creation and Inna explains what kind of processes they have developed to keep updated and how the members of the lawyer directory can participate in the work. Since Lawrina's story began in Ukraine and Inna and some of her team members work from Kyiv, we also talk about the Russia's massive assault against independent Ukraine. We examine if legal design and legal tech can play a role in the reconstruction and healing of Ukrainian society. And since many of us are looking for ways to help Ukraine and Ukrainian people, we ask Inna what would be the best ways to do this. --- Inna Ptitsyna is Product Communications Manager at Lawrina.

Lisa Zeiderman and Disagreements Between the ExesSpouses often have disagreements, but it's more complicated when they get divorced. How do co-parents sort out plans when they disagree on things like getting your child vaccinated? Is there a standard position from the courts? Or do judges' personal opinions come into play? And in the end, how much do you want to spend to make a decision like this?Modern times come with complicated discussions. On today's episode, matrimonial attorney, CFL, and Certified Divorce Financial Analyst Lisa Zeiderman is here to help us navigate the complicated landscape of mental health issues, disagreements about today's big issues and more. Sometimes, the problem isn't a disagreement after divorce. Sometimes it's the changes people go through over time that leads to the divorce. You're not the same person you were when you married. Everyone evolves, and sometimes, people don't evolve together.But disagreements may rise after the divorce because you no longer have to choose which battles to pick – you can take them all on if you want. There's no need to compromise anymore. (But it does matter to some extent because it does cost money to pay the lawyer to handle this.)Today's conversation helps look at the complexities of arguments, personality changes, and more.About LisaLisa Zeiderman is Managing Partner at Miller Zeiderman LLP, based in New York.

Welcome back to Legal Design Podcast! This marks the start of season 4. For this season premiere we are joined by the legendary legal information designer Hallie Jay Pope. Hallie has done amazing work making law better by designing legal information and one of her goals is to democratize legal information. As we know, legal information is often hard to obtain and even harder to understand because it's full of legal jargon and sentences so long that publishers have to minimize the print in law books. But Hallie is here to change this. She's known for her amazing work as a cartoonist and visualizing legal information in general. She explains the “threats and opportunities” of using comics, or images and visualization in legal communication. Hallie gives examples on projects she has been working on at the Graphic Advocacy Project and tells us about finding the Creative Advocacy Lab at the University of The University of Utah S.J. Quinney College of Law. We talk about the bigger picture and how access (or lack of it) to legal information has an impact on big things like democracy and how we make decision makers understand how vital access to legal information is to justice systems. We also have some exciting news for you guys. We are proud to announce that for this season, we are sponsored by Precisely, the CLM platform setting a new standard for digital contracting.

Making legal information more comprehensible and easier to use is a central theme in legal design. It is also a topic that has recently gained increasing research interest, sparking new ideas on how to enhance the usability of contracts and other legal documents in practice. After all, as research has shown, understanding what a document says is all about human metacognition. If users are enabled to connect the content of a legal document with ideas that are meaningful to them, it can help avoid “cognitive accidents” and work as a proactive method to promote legal wellbeing of the users and other parties. When users can understand what is expected of them, legal conflicts and misbehavior due to misunderstandings are less likely to occur. In this episode we have the honor to interview two pioneering experts in the field of legal information design, Helena Haapio and Rob Waller. Helena Haapio is a lawyer and a contract strategist at Lexpert Ltd, and an associate professor of business law in the University of Vaasa, Finland. Rob Waller is an experienced information designer, researcher, consultant and a teacher, and the current President of the International Institute for Information Design. Rob and Helena share insights from their various projects and collaborations, like the contract simplification project with an energy industry facility and Canadian aboriginals. We also hear what proactive law is, and practical tips about how to improve the usability of legal documents. If you want to know what makes a good (legal) document, tune in!

Yesterday I went virtually to Hawaii to see how the pandemic has affected one of the United States' remote locations. Today I get to go to another paradise, albeit a little bit further north, and a lot cooler, to talk with Susan Falk, the State Law Librarian at Alaska Court System. While Alaska may have missed the brunt of the pandemic, it was not immune to the changes that a work from home environment has created.

May 1st began phase one of the reopening efforts for the State of Texas. Governor Abbott's order specifically lists libraries as one of the businesses which can open at a 25% capacity rate (and social distancing), but not all libraries are ready to open right away. I talk with Joe Lawson, Deputy Director of the Harris County Law Library about how he and the staff in Texas' largest metropolitan area are preparing to open later this month, and how they are providing vital services to the courts, the bar, and the general public. Remember, we may all be In Seclusion, but we're in this together.
