  • Great Podcast

    Really enjoying this podcast. It is a huge help and covers a lot of topics that are typically difficult to get advice/guidance on. I’d love if the show would do an episode on conducting early case analysis.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

EP 713 - Fines, Fees, and Civil Rights Part 1
Q: Brendan, how did you get involved in teaching and running the clinic at SLU, and how does that intersect with your litigation work?
I balance a full-time teaching role with active practice by guiding students through both long-term civil rights litigation and more immediate, practical cases; the clinic provides real client contact and opportunities to handle complex briefs while also dealing with trauma-aware pedagogy.
EP 706: The Two Things That Can Blow Up Your Case
Q: Dear Case Doctors, experts are expensive. What do you think about going to visit an expert before hiring one?
Meeting and vetting the expert in person helps you assess background, sincerity, and fit for the case. Bringing records to review in advance and spending time together outside the office can reveal whether the expert truly understands the case and will contribute effectively at deposition and trial.
EP 704- Meet the Case Doctors
Q: Can this situation lead to a mistrial or can we rehabilitate the verdict if it stands?
It's a mistrial, unless the juror did not discuss it and brought it to the court's attention; then they could proceed with an alternate juror.
EP 704- Meet the Case Doctors
Q: How do you handle a client like this ethically and practically without compromising your sanity or the case?
You fire them. Fire the client immediately.
EP 703- Trial Wisdom From a Texas Legend
Q: What personal qualities do you think matter most in a long legal career, especially in litigation?
Your reputation and honesty are critical; once lost, you cannot adequately represent anyone.
