Most people think the biggest risk in buying a business is overpaying. It's not. It's signing an LOI you don't fully understand. Moving fast because someone on the internet told you speed wins. Then finding yourself thirty, forty thousand dollars deep into a deal that was never going to close the way you structured it. Eric Hsu has seen it happen more times than he can count. Over 160 closed deals as an M&A attorney who exclusively represents buyers. And the pattern almost always starts at the LOI - that document most first-time buyers treat like a formality. AI can hand you twenty questions to ask a seller. It can flag risk, validate numbers, model theory. It's genuinely useful. And genuinely dangerous when you don't know what you're actually looking at. Because AI can't read why a seller gets vague about their Google Ads account in a way that means something. It can't tell you that annual subscription revenue the seller just collected isn't really theirs yet - and your client inherits every obligation to fulfil it. It doesn't understand deal psychology. It can't sit across from someone who built their business over thirty years and feel where the resistance is coming from. That's pattern recognition. That's what 160 closed deals actually buys you. In this episode, Jaryd and Eric pull apart exactly where AI helps, where it quietly misleads you, and where it has no business making the call. You'll learn: Why the LOI is the single most expensive legal mistake first-time buyers make - and what stress-testing one actually looks like before you sign The working capital trap that kills deals mid-diligence and leaves buyers choosing between injecting $100K cash or walking away with nothing How SBA lending rules have shifted since mid-2025 - and why brokers now favour cash buyers who show up lender-ready from day one What AI genuinely cannot replicate: pattern recognition, human behaviour, and the deal empathy that holds negotiations together The holdco structure Eric recommends for portfolio buyers - when to set it up, why before your first SBA close, and what it actually costs Why integrity issues during diligence are non-negotiable walk-aways - and the dating analogy that explains exactly why The glue of the deal is the relationship. The trust. The ability to get both sides on a call and actually work something out. AI can model the numbers. It can't do that.
When you listen to this podcast with Dee Miles, it is no wonder why he has had the successful and admired career that he has. Also, as you'll hear, he has no plans on slowing down, which is something he has taken to heart from his mentor and law partner, Jere Beasley. In fact, Dee and I talk a good bit about Jere Beasley on this episode and here is the podcast I did with Jere several years ago. Dee is described as a cornerstone of the Beasley Allen Law Firm since 1991. He oversees the firms' Consumer Fraud and Commercial Litigation Section. This is a quote from Dee from the 2013 Super Lawyer magazine: "People will find a way to cheat." Because of this blunt fact of human nature, Dee has built a thriving law practice over the years. This is a lawyer who is at the top of his profession, and I think you'll like hearing his story on this episode of the podcast.

The host, family rights attorney Mark Ruel Jr., celebrates Mississippi for joining an elite group of states—including Kentucky, Arkansas, West Virginia, Florida, and Missouri—that have codified true 50-50 parenting laws. The discussion highlights how this law effectively eliminates the outdated "weekend visitor" dynamic for fathers, shifts the burden of proof to the party trying to deny custody, adjusts child support expectations based on actual parenting time, and aligns with data showing the psychological benefits of dual-parent involvement for children.

After nearly three years of litigation, a judge has issued a temporary order requiring Drew to vacate the marital home by May 31, 2026, ending the "co-parenting limbo" where the couple lived on separate floors of the same house. Most significantly, the judge awarded Ralph primary custody during the school year after his legal team provided evidence that the children had excessive school absences while under Drew's primary care. While Drew's attorneys maintain that this is a temporary order and the matter is still being actively litigated, she currently faces a move-out deadline and a reduction to an alternating weekend visitation schedule starting in August.

You can learn more about Reel Fathers Rights and their services on our website www.reelfathersrights.com About This Episode: This episode explores the sudden legal fallout between Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott and his former fiancée, Sarah Jane Ramos, following the cancellation of their luxury wedding in Lake Como, Italy, on April 10, 2026. The split followed a high-tension trip to the Bahamas where allegations of infidelity arose, leading to the couple calling off the wedding via an email to 250 guests. The podcast details the legal steps taken by Prescott, who filed a petition in Texas to establish joint managing conservatorship for their two young daughters, MJ and Aurora, seeking specific parental rights such as joint decision-making and a geographic restriction to keep the family in Texas. Despite the initial public drama, the episode highlights a positive development: both parties have agreed to settle custody and co-parenting details privately through mediation rather than a public trial, a move praised by their legal teams and peers as being in the best interest of their children.
Today, I have the pleasure of speaking with Dan Spector, partner at Hanson Bridgett, an Am Law 200 California-based law firm and the first law firm recognized as a certified B Corp. Dan is a trial lawyer, mediator, and arbitrator whose practice focuses on trust, probate and complex civil cases involving families. He has been named in multiple years as a Super Lawyer by his peers for Northern California in the area of Trust and Estate Litigation and a statewide mediation and private neutral panelist for Judicate West, a professional neutral company with offices throughout California. Dan is a member of the California Lawyer's Association's (CLA) Trust and Estates Section and Litigation Section, as well as the Sacramento County Bar Association's Probate, Trust and Estate Planning Section. He has recently been selected to serve on the Executive Committee for CLA's Trust and Estate Section (TEXCOM), for which he participates in various subcommittees, including the Litigation, Incapacity and Legislation subcommittees. He also serves as a Judge Pro-Tem in the Sacramento Superior Court and has been named as an expert witness on issues relating to trust, probate, and litigation matters. Dan has lectured at U.C. Davis before the Sacramento County Bar Association, CCLSA and the California Society of Certified Public Accountants on the topics of civil litigation and trust and probate litigation. He has served on numerous non-profit boards throughout Sacramento, including as Chair of the Boys and Girls Club of Greater Sacramento, board member of the San Juan Unified School District Superintendent's Advisory Board, board member of the St. Ignatius School Advisory Board, board member of the Anthony M. Kennedy Learning Center, and Chairman of the Board of Del Paso Country Club. Dan served as General Chairman of the 2015 United States Senior Open Golf Championship, the single largest sporting event in Sacramento's history. Dan and his firm Hanson Bridgett are values advisor members of FOX, and we are thrilled to have their expertise within our membership community. We've talked about conflict on this podcast before, but today we'll learn more about Dan's area of expertise – "active conflict". Dan explains for our listeners how active conflict is defined and how it is manifested in both pre-litigation and litigation situations. Families are complex, and family dynamics and the emotional undercurrents that run through the relationships among family members present a unique challenge for both clients and professionals in our field. Dan shares his experience on how families get to the active conflict stage, and he describes the common pathways and the ways family members and their family offices can recognize them. In many cases, significant changes – and resulting conflicts – within a family are triggered by the death of a key family principal. So, one practical consideration is to distinguish between pre-mortem and post-mortem conflict situations. Dan talks about the main differences between family conflicts that take place before vs. after a major death in the family. Active conflict can be very painful for families. Dan provides an outline of the options available to families for managing and resolving active conflict, including the different professional channels and techniques they can resort to. Don't miss this illuminating conversation with a leading expert and practitioner in the field of family conflict management and resolution.
This week your hosts Steve Lowry and Yvonne Godfrey interview Frank Mangiaracina of Kline & Specter PC (https://www.klinespecter.com/). Remember to rate and review GTP in iTunes: Click Here To Rate and Review Episode Details: Philadelphia-based personal injury attorney Frank Mangiaracina with Kline & Specter PC discusses how he secured justice for David Coryell, a motorcycle driver involved in an automobile wreck with a delivery driver employed by a Domino's franchise. On July 27, 2016, defendant Steven Morris was driving a delivery vehicle to deliver Domino's food when he made a sudden left turn into oncoming traffic, crashing his vehicle into David and his motorcycle. David suffered severe physical and emotional injuries from this incident. After numerous operations, he was left with the decision to either amputate his left leg or experience permanent and progressive pain. Despite the defense's attempts to claim that Domino's did not have control over a franchisee's operations and therefore could not be held accountable for the actions of a franchisee's employee, Mangiaracina established that Domino's and the franchisee have a “master-servant relationship,” arguing that Domino's did, in fact, have control over the franchisee and therefore should be held responsible. The jury agreed, and on August 13, 2021, a Philadelphia County jury returned a $2,009,553 verdict in favor of plaintiff David Coryell. Click Here to Read/Download Trial Documents Guest Bio: Frank Mangiaracina Frank Mangiaracina focuses his practice on catastrophic personal injury. He is a staunch advocate and proven trial lawyer who helped compile more than $60 million in recoveries in the five years before coming to Kline & Specter. Most recently, in a COVID-era trial during the summer of 2021, Mangiaracina won a $2.1 million verdict against Domino's Pizza for a client who suffered severe and permanent injuries to his leg when his motorcycle was struck by a delivery driver. As co-lead counsel at trial, Mangiaracina gave a closing argument that helped convince the jury that Domino's was responsible for the actions of a franchisee. He was also co-counsel in litigation that achieved a $44 million pre-trial settlement in a product liability case for an oil rig worker who was left a quadriplegic after he was struck by a falling light fixture. In medical malpractice cases, among others, Mangiaracina helped win settlements of $5.5 million, $5 million and $3.5 million for, respectively, failures to timely diagnose stroke, diagnose and treat sepsis and to treat an aortic aneurysm. These recoveries were made with Mangiaracina's prior firm, Sheridan & Murray LLC in Fort Washington, Pa. He also worked as an attorney at Berger & Montague in Philadelphia and as a law clerk with the Philadelphia firm of Saltz, Mongeluzzi & Bendesky. Because of his litigation success, Mangiaracina has been named a Pennsylvania Rising Star by Super Lawyers for four consecutive years (2019-2022). The independent lawyers survey group recognizes the top 2.5 percent of attorneys in the state who are 40 or younger. Mangiaracina earned his law degree at the Temple University Beasley School of Law, where he graduated magna cum laude, in the top five percent of his class and was a member of the Order of the Coif honor society. He was, simultaneously, staff editor for the Temple Law Review and a member of Temple's renowned National Trial Team, which placed in the semifinals of the National Institute of Trial Advocacy's “Tournament of Champions,” an invitation-only competition. At Temple, Mangiaracina won several awards and scholarships, including the Integrated Trial Advocacy Graduation Award, the Benjamin and Natalie Levin Memorial Scholarship, the Class of 1978 Scholarship and the Faculty Law Scholarship.

Matt Bevin, who famously championed "family values" and signed legislation creating a presumption for 50/50 joint custody, now faces a 60-day jail sentence after being found in contempt of court. The conflict centers on Jonah's allegations that his parents abandoned him at a residential facility in Jamaica at age 17—a facility later shut down for abuse—and left him without resources or education. As Jonah sues for child support and educational expenses, the case has sparked further controversy with the introduction of House Bill 707, dubbed the "Bevin Bill," which aims to prevent children from intervening in their parents' divorce cases.
Want to know how top law firms scale without losing culture or trust? Steve Fretzin sits down with the founders of Omega Law Group to reveal the systems, partnerships, and strategies that turn strong teams into high-performing firms. In this episode, Steve Fretzin, Shahab Mossavar-Rahmani, Robin Saghian, and Edwin Saghian discuss: Measuring performance and managing by data Forming and sustaining a strong law firm partnership Delegation of duties and staying in your lane Building culture, trust, and low-turnover teams Systems, structure, and mistakes made while scaling Key Takeaways: You can't effectively manage or grow a firm if you're not rigorously measuring performance and outcomes. Shared values, trust, and low ego are the real foundations that allow partnerships to survive disagreement and big decisions. Delegating duties based on strengths—and then staying in your lane—unlocks scale in a way that “doing everything yourself” never can. A strong culture is intentional: clear expectations, honest feedback, and genuine investment in employees dramatically reduce turnover. Many growth bottlenecks come from hanging onto tasks too long; cutting your losses on mis-hires and outdated processes is essential.

He has also been recognized by Inc on their Ince 500 list of fastest growing companies as well as Elite Lawyer and Expertise.com About This Episode: This podcast episode dives into Title IV-D, a 1975 federal program originally designed as a "safety net" for low-income families that has transformed into what the host calls a "money-maker" for state governments. Originally intended to recover welfare costs from non-custodial parents, the program now serves as a state-subsidized debt collection service for wealthy families regardless of income. The host argues that because the federal government provides performance bonuses based on cost-effectiveness, state case workers are incentivized to prioritize high-dollar cases over impoverished families who actually need the help. To fix the system, the episode proposes implementing means testing and weighted metrics that reward lifting children out of poverty rather than just collecting large checks for the affluent.
Bill talks with lawyer and former Clinton special counsel Lanny Davis about his book, Finding the Third Way, and the need to restore civility and “disagree agreeably” in U.S. politics. Davis recalls a Yale campus culture shaped by President Kingman Brewster that encouraged civil discourse and public service, even amid 1960s turmoil. He defines the “Third Way” as Bill Clinton's principled blend of social liberalism, fiscal conservatism (balanced budgets and responsibility), and cultural moderation, offering a positive alternative to Trumpism. Davis argues most Americans want civil politics, but extremes dominate, and Democrats must stand for affordability, fiscal discipline, and tolerance—especially within their own party—while rejecting lies, racism, and attacks on the Constitution. He predicts a potential realignment with disenchanted Trump voters and says Democrats need younger leadership after Biden's decision to run again. You can get a copy of Lanny's new book, coming our today, Finding the Third Way: Lessons in the Politics of Civility from My Journey through History here.Today's Bill Press Pod is supported by The Laborers' International Union of North America.

The episode provides a detailed timeline of her legal troubles, starting with the 2022 "soft swinging" scandal that ended her marriage to Tate Paul, followed by a volatile relationship with Dakota Mortensen featured on Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. The discussion focuses on a 2023 domestic violence video showing Taylor throwing a metal chair that struck her daughter, which resurfaced alongside new 2026 domestic assault allegations. From a family law perspective, the host analyzes the protective orders filed by both Tate and Dakota, explaining why Taylor faces a significant uphill battle to retain custody of her three children due to evidence of child endangerment.

He breaks down the Qualified Immunity Trap, where officials can be protected if no identical prior case exists, and the Rooker-Feldman Doctrine, which prevents federal courts from overturning state court family law decisions. Ruel also discusses the Absolute Judicial Immunity of judges and prosecutors, the Monell Standard requiring proof of official policy rather than individual error, and the No Physical Seizure rule that often disqualifies harassment claims if children were not physically removed. The episode aims to educate viewers on the uphill battle of filing these cases and advocates for legal reform to hold government officials accountable.

He graduated with a bachelor's degree in 1988 from the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, went on to earn his J.D. degree in 1991 from Tulane Law School in New Orleans, Louisiana, and earned his Master of Law degree (L.L.M.) in health care law in 1994 from the DePaul Law School/Health Law Institute in Chicago, Illinois. He was admitted to the State of Illinois Bar and the General and Trial Bar of the United States District Court of North Eastern Illinois in 1992. Read the Full Bio Here Frederick Joseph Frederick is a partner and trial lawyer for the Elman Joseph Law Group, LLC. He was named to the 2021 & 2022 "Rising Stars" group of lawyers by Thomson Reuters as part of their "Super Lawyers" awards. This "Rising Stars" designation is for those under 40 years old or who have been practicing law for 10 years or less and is granted to the Top 2.5% of lawyers. The designation is based upon 12 indicators encompassing both professional achievement and peer review. The Elman Joseph Law Group concentrates on Illinois personal injury lawsuits involving car, truck, SUV, motorcycle, bicycle, and pedestrian accident injuries. The firm also handles cases involving premises liability injury cases (including "slip & fall" accidents), workplace accidents, injuries and accidents that occur in nursing homes, and other situations where injury or death has resulted due to the negligence or intentional actions of another person. Frederick prides himself on his success rate at arbitration and at trial. Like other lawyers at the Elman Joseph Law Group, LLC, he is unwilling to just "settle" cases by accepting inappropriate offers from the insurance companies. Among his accomplishments are the results he achieved in two Cook County car accident cases. Mr. Joseph has obtained the highest jury verdict awards in two separate Cook County municipal division courtrooms in 2018. Both verdicts are more than double the amount of the next highest verdict in their respective courtrooms. In one car accident court trial, the verdict was 12 times the final offer from the defense attorney; in the other lawsuit, the verdict was over 5 times the final offer from the defense attorney. Another example of Mr. Joseph's trial capabilities took place recently in Cook County. The plaintiff (a public school teacher) was struck after the defendant ran a red light and collided with her vehicle. The insurance company wanted to settle the case for less than the plaintiff's medical bills, and award her nothing for her pain and suffering. Mr. Joseph, unwilling to settle for that amount, took the case to trial. After closing arguments, the jury returned a verdict for his client for over four times what the insurance company was offering to settle the case. He graduated from the Purchase College Conservatory of Music, and he continued his graduate studies at Boston University. His J.D. degree is from the Loyola University Chicago School of Law. During law school, he was a member of the Dean's List, participated on the ABA Mock Trial Team, and spent two years clerking in the litigation/product liability group for a prestigious national corporate defense firm.

The host explains that Goltes is likely seeking to leverage California's lack of a hard cap on child support for ultra-high-net-worth individuals, which could result in monthly payments exceeding $100,000—significantly more than what she would likely receive in their home country of Slovenia. While California can enforce financial support due to Dončić's employment with the Lakers, the host notes a jurisdictional catch: the California courts cannot decide custody because the children have not lived in the state for the required six months. The episode concludes by predicting a protracted international court battle or a quiet out-of-court settlement as Dončić's legal team attempts to move the case back to Slovenia.

William Henry Seward and the Secession Winter (November 1860 – April 1861) The lively tale of a politically fraught era 165 years in the past and yet highly relevant today. In the winter of 1860-61, one man, William Henry Seward, Republican Senator from New York (the presumptive favorite for the 1860 Republican nomination for president; defeated by Lincoln on the third ballot), labored mightily to effectuate his plan to save the Union. Because of history's (and historians') heavy bias to portray Lincoln as almost a saint (see, for example, Jon Meacham's “And There Was Light: Abraham Lincoln and the American Struggle” (Random House 2022)), Seward's prodigious efforts have either been ignored, given short shrift, or looked upon as something less than honorable. This short book – based upon original archival research and a comprehensive review of secondary sources – tells the story of Seward's efforts. Counter-factual history is always an iffy business. But Seward's “plan” did help to keep the Upper South States in the Union during the months before the president-elect became the president. And had his counsel been followed after March 4th, perhaps the course of American History would have played out very differently.

He has also been recognized by Inc on their Ince 500 list of fastest growing companies as well as Elite Lawyer and Expertise.com About This Episode: On this episode, Mark Reel Jr. breaks down the two-part constitutional shield of due process that stands between a family and state overreach. He explains that procedural due process acts as the court's "user manual," requiring the three pillars of official notice, a meaningful opportunity to be heard, and an impartial judge to ensure the legal process is fair. Mark then dives into substantive due process, which protects the fundamental liberty interest parents have in the care and control of their children. Because these rights are fundamental, the state must meet the "strict scrutiny" standard, proving they have a compelling reason—such as preventing immediate physical harm—before they can legally interfere with a family. Ultimately, he illustrates how procedural due process protects the trial itself, while substantive due process protects the very fabric of the family.

Granville Supreme Court case established that fit parents have a fundamental 14th Amendment right to make decisions regarding the care and custody of their children. The ruling struck down an overly broad Washington state law that allowed any person to sue for visitation, asserting that the government cannot override a fit parent's choices just because a judge believes a different arrangement would be "better". While frequently cited by parental rights advocates to support autonomy and equal time, the case specifically addressed disputes between parents and third parties, such as grandparents, rather than conflicts between two fit parents.

Following a CPS investigation initiated by a mandatory school reporter and a previous restraining order involving Jim's current wife, Courtney, a December 2025 settlement resulted in the children moving to Tennessee to live with Jim full-time. This case mirrors California legal procedures, where the Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) investigates similar reports via a Section 3027 report to determine if allegations are founded, which can lead to emergency custody shifts and restricted visitation.

About This Episode: Family law attorney Mark Real Jr. explains the legal and logistical challenges of claiming children as dependents on tax returns after a divorce or separation. He notes that while court orders often specify how tax credits should be divided between parents, the IRS primarily determines eligibility based on the number of overnights each parent spends with the children. Real emphasizes that following the court order is crucial to avoid sanctions, especially since electronic filing conflicts—where one parent files first—can trigger reviews that delay both parents' tax returns.
On his episode of That Tech Pod, Kevin and Laura sit down with Ray Biederman, CEO and Co-Founder of Proteus Discovery Group, to talk about what actually happens when legal theory, technology, and human behavior collide. Ray walks through his unusual path from music education to law to legal tech, and how that background shaped the way he thinks about systems, judgment, and risk. Rather than chasing hype, he explains why Proteus focuses on defensible outcomes and practical decision-making in a crowded eDiscovery market.The conversation gets into lessons Ray has learned by wearing every hat, product builder, services leader, and still-practicing attorney. He shares what courtroom experience teaches that product teams often miss until something breaks, especially around context, intent, and how small mistakes compound once data starts moving. Ray also offers a measured take on AI-driven review, warning against the industry's tendency to overcorrect by trying to remove human judgment entirely, and highlights the ethical tensions that surface when AI reveals patterns no one anticipated. The episode closes with a forward-looking discussion on deepfake evidence, verification challenges, and the growing risk posed by data traveling across too many systems without enough accountability. Ray Biederman, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of Proteus Discovery Group, LLC, has worked in every phase of electronic discovery for more than two decades. He is a Super Lawyer in the area of eDiscovery, has been cited in multiple court opinions as an expert witness, and is adjunct faculty for eDiscovery at the IUPUI School of Informatics and Computing. He consults on Information Governance policies and procedures related to cybersecurity and its intersection with government regulation and industry-specific best practices. Outside of his eDiscovery experience, Ray is an active litigator representing clients in product liability work, business valuation disputes, and contract disputes. He is also a founding partner in Mattingly Burke Cohen & Biederman. He was previously an associate at Barnes & Thornburg, LLP. He holds a B.M. in Music Education from Butler University and a J.D from Indiana University, the Robert H. McKinney School of Law.

About This Episode: The legal battle between NBA star Anthony Edwards and influencer Aisha (Ayesha) Howard centers on a jurisdictional dispute over their daughter, Baby Aubrey, who was born in October 2024. A California judge ruled in early 2025 that the state lacked jurisdiction over child support, a major win for Edwards as it moved the financial proceedings to Georgia, where support caps are generally lower than in California. Despite being granted sole custody, Howard has allegedly delayed signing the final agreement due to new demands, including a public apology on all of Edwards' social media platforms and $500,000 in damages for reputational and financial harm. Edwards, who has not met his daughter and is not seeking visitation, has accused Howard of exploiting the litigation and their child for social media content. Howard has since appealed the jurisdictional ruling, accusing Edwards of misleading the court about his business ties to California.

About This Episode: In July 2025, Haley Ah-Yone filed a petition in Los Angeles County to establish the parental relationship of her then-unborn child with Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua. The legal battle involves requests for full physical custody and child support, and has been marked by social media conflict, including allegations from Ah-Yone that Nacua was a "narcissist". While the child, Kingston, was born in October 2025 with Nacua present, the legal case remains complex due to Nacua's formal request for a DNA test and recent controversial comments he made on a live stream advising against marriage.

About This Episode: Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and State Senator Angela Paxton initially succeeded in having their divorce case file sealed by a judge in Collin County, arguing it was a private family matter. However, a coalition of media outlets intervened, citing Rule 76a of the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure, which presumes court records are open to the public unless a "specific, serious, and substantial interest" outweighs the public's right to know. Faced with a high likelihood of losing in court due to the public interest in the Attorney General's conduct and finances, the Paxtons preemptively agreed to unseal the records. The released documents revealed that Angela Paxton is seeking a disproportionate share of their estate, alleging adultery as grounds for the divorce.

About This Episode: What happens when state law turns a hospital into a "biological incubator"? This episode explores the harrowing story of Adriana Smith, a 30-year-old nurse who was declared brain-dead while nine weeks pregnant. Despite her family's wishes, Georgia's "Life Act" led the hospital to keep her on mechanical life support for 116 days to ensure the delivery of her son, Baby Chance. The legal nightmare didn't end there; because Adriana and the father, Adrian Harden, were not married, he was forced to sue the state just to be recognized as a legal parent. We dive into the intersection of medical ethics, Georgia's heartbeat laws, and the complex battle for father's rights in the wake of tragedy.

Anne Hamer is a top-rated family lawyer based in Nashville, Tennessee, whose path to success was anything but traditional. After years in corporate and plaintiff work, and even a decade as a stay-at-home mom, Anne returned to the courtroom with a new sense of purpose. In this episode, she shares how to change your legal career at any age, how her own divorce reshaped her understanding of family law, and why it's never too late to find work you love.Anne Hamer's BackgroundBorn and raised in Memphis, Anne Hamer has spent much of her life in Tennessee, with a detour to New York for law school at NYU. She laughs now about being the Southern student with the unmistakable accent that made her memorable in class but also taught her to adapt and connect with people from every background. After graduation, she weighed a fast-paced life in Manhattan against a more balanced one back home and chose Tennessee."I just knew I was not going to have any kind of life if I stayed in New York. I wanted something different," shares Anne Hamer on You Are A Lawyer.Anne's career began in corporate law at a large Nashville firm, where she handled IPOs and mergers but found herself uninspired by the work. After trying litigation, plaintiff work, and even stepping away from practice for 10 years to raise her children, she returned to law with a renewed sense of purpose. Today, she's one of Tennessee's most respected family lawyers, recognised by Super Lawyers for her compassionate yet strategic approach to high-conflict and high-asset divorce cases.This episode is produced by Skip the Boring Stuff, a podcast strategy company for business owners and creatives.

This week, we explore how divorce, drink-driving offences, and defamation can cripple a career or clinic if not handled properly, and why most people react far too late. My guest, Tad Nelson, a criminal defence lawyer and "Super Lawyer" from Galveston County, Texas, who brings more than three decades of courtroom experience, plus a master's degree in forensic toxicology, to our conversation. Tad has seen the best and worst of human behaviour, and his insights apply directly to business owners navigating legal, personal, or reputation challenges. Tad explains the importance of acting fast, staying calm, and getting professional help, both legal and PR, before the fallout damages your brand, income, or family. He also shares his philosophy that a strong reputation isn't repaired after a crisis; it's built long before one happens. This episode is packed with practical advice on staying ahead of legal problems, managing perception in the age of social media, and leading with integrity under pressure.

What does it really take to “disrupt divorce”? In this episode, Rhonda sits down with Jordan Rosenberg, a family law attorney from the Chicago area who believes the attorney–client relationship should be a true partnership — built on open communication, trust, and collaboration. Together, they pull back the curtain on what most attorneys wish their clients knew and how women can take a more empowered role in the process. You'll hear insights on: Why viewing your lawyer as a partner — not just a service provider — changes everything The power of organization (and how small clues, like a $5 savings account, can reveal much bigger financial issues) Why “the smartest people know when to ask for help” — and how that applies directly to divorce The importance of building the right team: legal, financial, and emotional support How to set realistic expectations — without slipping into worst-case-scenario thinking Why “trusting the process” doesn't mean handing over control, but staying actively engaged Jordan also shares one of his favorite quotes that perfectly fits this stage of life: FEAR = Forget Everything And Run, or Face Everything And Rise. This episode is packed with both practical tools and encouragement for anyone navigating the complexities of divorce.

This week Steve and Yvonne interview Tom Bosworth of Bosworth Law (https://tombosworthlaw.com/). Remember to rate and review GTP in iTunes: Click Here to Rate and Review View/Download Trial Documents Case Details: Attorney Tom Bosworth achieved a historic milestone by becoming the youngest lawyer in Pennsylvania to secure an eight-figure jury verdict as the lead counsel in a medical malpractice case for a living client. The case involved a medical malpractice victim who was awarded a $19.7 million verdict by a Philadelphia jury, due to a failure to diagnose. After years of seeing the same primary care physician, a woman's complaints about back pain and other symptoms were repeatedly dismissed. She sought the help of a neurologist, who discovered a mass on her spine. Unfortunately, the mass had already caused several complications, including incontinence, pain, and difficulty walking. As a result, she was left partially paralyzed and unable to continue working. Guest Bio: Thomas Bosworth At age 33, Tom Bosworth became the youngest lawyer in the history of Pennsylvania to obtain a jury verdict in excess of $10 million for a living client as lead counsel (the total verdict being over $19 million). Three months prior to that, after two weeks as lead counsel at trial, Bosworth secured a $7 million settlement on behalf of a mother whose mentally disabled adult son wrongfully died in a group home. Bosworth also obtained multiple non-monetary terms in this settlement that were only agreed to by the defendant after two weeks of trial. In the past 5 years, Bosworth has been counsel on various additional jury trials and settlements totaling over $80 million. These cases included ones for medical malpractice, product liability, and wrongful death. Recently, Bosworth was designated by the independent attorney group Super Lawyers as a Rising Star in Pennsylvania, a designation reserved for the top 2.5 percent of attorneys in the state who are 40 or younger or practicing 10 years or less. Bosworth attended Temple University Beasley School of Law from where he graduated in 2016 with magna cum laude and Order of the Coif distinction. During law school, Bosworth participated as a member of Temple's nationally ranked Trial Team and as a Research Editor of the Temple Law Review. Following law school, Bosworth was a law clerk to the Honorable Lawrence Stengel in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
