In this episode, I get to speak with Mark C. Zauderer, a long-time, highly regarded legal professional, to explore the profound changes that have reshaped the legal industry over the past five decades. From the rise of mega law firms to the shift from a profession rooted in tradition and values to a business focused on profitability, Mark offers a candid and insightful look into the substantive ways law firms have changed – in both negative and positive ways. ​ We discuss how the centralization of management in large firms has diminished the voice of individual partners and altered the dynamics of decision-making. ​ Mark also sheds light on the decline of mentorship and training for young lawyers, as firms prioritize cost efficiency over professional development. ​ He shares his perspective on how these changes have impacted the quality of legal services and the trust between lawyers and their clients. Additionally, we delve into the growing influence of political and social pressures on law firms, including the challenges posed by recent executive orders targeting diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. ​ Mark examines how these external forces are shaping the priorities and values of the legal profession. Whether you're a legal professional, a law student, or simply curious about the inner workings of modern law firms, this conversation offers a thought-provoking glimpse into the business of law and its implications for the future of the profession. Jump in to hear Mark's insights and reflections on what's next for the legal industry. ______________________________________Thanks for listening! If you like what you hear please give us a rating.

On May 30, former president Donald Trump was found guilty of 34 felony counts of falsifying business records in connection with hush money payments to adult actress Stormy Daniels. His sentencing has been scheduled for July 11, four days before the Republican National Convention. He faces a possible sentence of four years for each count. If you were on Twitter or Instagram or your social media platform of choice that historic Thursday afternoon, then you will have noticed two diametrically opposed reactions. On one side, people celebrated like it was the very best day of their entire lives, as justice, at last, was served. On the other side of the space-time Twitter-uum, it was a very, very somber day for the country.  So. . . which is it? Did Manhattan district attorney Alvin Bragg at long last rightly and justly prosecute Trump for felony crimes? Or was this an obviously political witch trial and an abuse of the U.S. justice system? In other words: Have we crossed the Rubicon in American politics? After all, District Attorney Bragg campaigned on a promise to bring charges against Trump. And either way, the reality is that the presidential front-runner is now a convicted felon. What does that mean? For voters? (Spoiler: it made them want to give him. . . more money.) For future elections? And for this country? To debate these questions on Honestly today are Sarah Isgur and Mark Zauderer. Sarah is a columnist for The Dispatch and an ABC News contributor. She clerked for the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals and served as the Justice Department spokeswoman during the Trump administration. Mark is a veteran New York litigator who sits on a committee that screens applicants for the same court that will hear Trump's appeal. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
