  • Fantastic and Eye Opening!

    By far the best podcast for trial lawyers. Shows the ingenious TLC methods and how they are practically used by TLC trial lawyers. Listening to these keeps me connected to TLC methods and makes me so grateful that I joined this community and have been lucky enough to attend so many TLC programs!

  • Great podcast for Trial Lawyers

    I’ve done one weeklong TLC event. Changed my perspective and outlook on my practice. I wish I had discovered this 25 years ago.

    This podcast is always on my listening list before trials and whenever I need some inspiration about our profession. Great interviews with great lawyers.

  • I’m so happy to have this resource and community

    I was certainly overwhelmed by the man formally known as Gerry Spence and what he did with his skanky wife.But after year I have finally let it go. Meanwhile, Rafe has done such a good job in communicating the difficulties that trial lawyers have had during the pandemic. Indeed, I believe there was a Judge in Brooklyn who had a line into Mitch McConnell as Vicki said. Anyway, I’m not gonna be the guy who dresses up in a duck suit, but I have learned so much from youse guys, as they say in Da Bro... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Fighting for the Voiceless with Hank Sherrod
Q: What was your experience like working with the documentary filmmakers on The Alabama Solution?
They earned my trust by demonstrating genuine care for the subject matter, being on-site at the prison, and valuing the truth over sensationalism. Their process—using inmate footage and interviews—felt authentic, and I believed they would honor Stevie's story and Sandy's perspective rather than skew it for drama.
Fighting for the Voiceless with Hank Sherrod
Q: What drew you to civil rights work and how did you get started in this space?
I started with early exposure to defense work for a local jail, then took on cases involving discrimination against children with attention deficit disorder, which shaped my focus on civil rights and school policy. Over the years, opportunities and a reputation for taking difficult cases led me to a lifelong path in this area.
Setting the Scene with Cyndy Short
Q: Can you give an example of how you've used non-traditional materials to present to the court?
We've used body maps, videos played in open court, and letterbooks with photographs to convey the client's voice and life story in a way that standard testimony cannot, which has helped the court see the person behind the charges.
Setting the Scene with Cyndy Short
Q: Cyndy, why is it critical for defense attorneys to think about sentencing from the very start of a case?
Because understanding the client's life and circumstances early on allows you to shape the narrative and identify mitigating factors before the events that lead to sentencing are fully formed, increasing the likelihood of a fair outcome.
Caught In The Net with Richard Sterger and Melissa Sandoval
Q: What TLC techniques were most effective in this case?
Role reversals, setting the scene with detailed documentation of detention, and a teamwork approach combining probate filings with habeas actions to keep the case alive and persuasive at key moments.
