  • Irony: Donald Trump Continues to Misunderstand Fraud; Crypto Wallets Frozen
    Jul 29 2024

    When the president exited the race, Trump argued Republicans should be reimbursed because Biden defrauded them into spending millions of dollars running against him. This, of course, is imbecilic but it raises the question: How do you prove fraud in court? Glad you asked! We also have a crypto update. This week, my team and I got a court order freezing wallets containing assets belonging to victims of "pig butchering." And radio legend Scott Braddock joins to hear me complain that Evan is more popular than I am.

  • Crowdstrike Makes Computers Sad, Plaintiffs’ Lawyers Happy
    Jul 22 2024

    After a worldwide IT outage blamed on Crowdstrike, the company’s CEO says it was a problem “we’ve caused,” which is an admission that makes lawsuits against the company that much easier. So how to deal with trying those cases? As in any trial, an attorney should address your worst evidence in your own case. That's something Geoff’s brother and sister liberals would be well advised to keep in mind when they start spouting hippie nonsense in response to the attempted assassination of Donald Trump. Don’t just make up things because there are facts you’d rather not face. And you'll hear from legendary trial lawyer David Berg (yes relation) on why trial lawyers should speak up in defense of democracy.

  • Hurricane Beryl Damage? Get Ready for Insurance Litigation. Plus: Stop Listening to the Loudest Talker
    Jul 15 2024

    Now that Beryl has passed, insurance companies are going to be sending armies of adjusters to Houston eager to write checks. Paying you everything you’re owed makes them no money, so that’s not why they’re coming. They’re there to pay you as little as you’re willing to take while you’re desperate, which is going to lead to a metric ton of Beryl-related litigation. How and when to sue your chintzy insurer – discussion from an expert. And speaking of expertise: How expert testimony is admitted in court vs. how random loudmouths opine via their rectums in society at large.
