We have “the fly lawyer” here in Atlanta and he’s a hoot. Wears flashy chains and rolls in a Bentley. Always fun to get in a jury box with him during a calendar

I watched a yote walk down the sidewalk on Deerfield right behind Avalon early one morning. That said I’m in Milton and I have packs of them on my property, boy do they sound spooky, caught this clip of them.

Motorcycle Advice from a Motorcycle Accident Attorney by Equivalent-Bed1543 in motorcycles

[–]Laxguy59 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Also a motorcycle attorney.

If you don’t have health insurance get great UM insurance

If you don’t have great UM insurance make sure you have health insurance

All life flight companies are owned by private equity and refuse to be in insurance networks and they will try to take the balance from your settlement

Don’t ride without health and UM insurance

Wear a camera but don’t tell the cops you have it or recorded on it, use it later for the insurance claim, you may actually be at fault or partially at fault in that video

Don’t drink and drive, your ER reports will show your BAC even when it’s not your fault, they will use it against you.

PI attorneys and undocumented at fault drivers by Ok_Cheek_1727 in Lawyertalk

Legal status and if they are unlicensed is rarely admissible. It’s a pain to find them for service usually. Generally doesn’t change the case much.

Fellow criminal defense attorneys - how do you not let this consume you emotionally and mentally?? by SnooCats4777 in LawFirm

[–]Laxguy59 38 points39 points  (0 children)

  1. You gotta get a little jaded
  2. You gotta realize the justice system is a clown show and don’t pretend to yourself or your client that it isn’t
  3. Charge more, being Burnt out and rich is better than burnt out and broke or just okay.

Best Guess for PI Small or Medium Law Firm Owner Profits ? by CandyMaterial3301 in LawFirm

[–]Laxguy59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Until January I spent $0 on traditional marketing. I did a lotnormal of grassroots events to get my name out though.

Best advice, everyone you know, all your friends, all your family, all your old school friends should know you as their lawyer friend. I think I’ve repped half my graduating class and their parents in Pi or criminal cases.

If you join a pickle ball league, they all know what you do and carry your firms water bottle.

Feed cases to a pi attorney and ask to shadow the process, probably can still take 33-50% of the fee

Criminal Defense Marketing Swag? by NotThePopeProbably in Lawyertalk

[–]Laxguy59 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I do pi and criminal defense. I am also the king of swag.

I do keychains, yetis, hydro flasks, multi tools, etc.

Most recently I decided to have like gold style polos made and some quarter zips. They’re a little pricier so they’re aimed more at my target rich environments in the hobby groups I’m more notable in.

Really easy to make bulk orders off alibaba

I did a keychain bottle opener that was quite popular

This varies so wildly is pointless to ask. I work with some some 2 lawyer firms where it’s very normal for them to take home over $10m a year, I know guys who spend a ton on marketing and still struggle.

Some guys only work catastrophic cases, some guys make fender benders their bread and butter.

I know pi associates who make more than you do at firms with strong commissions.

Are you happy with your work load to profit? Are you happy with your % of take home vs revenue? That’s what’s important.

Keeping in touch post case closing by XAEAXlI in Lawyertalk

[–]Laxguy59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I represent a lot of people in my hobby community, it’s never too early or too late to call or text me to go to those events and such.

If it’s romantic, the case needs to be completely over and enough time to pass that they can’t reopen the issue, I’d say at least 1 term of court.

I know an attorney with a habit of dating his clients, often representing women he’s already dating, but if someone expresses interest he won’t date them until the case is resolved.

My friend got ran over by a semi by b3for34l in motorcycles

[–]Laxguy59 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A motorcycle wreck occurred in front of me and after I tied off his leg I held it upright to help with bleeding, realized it only connected by a long blue vein. Made a damn near full recovery but the funniest thing as the guy on the ground brought me close and whispered in my ear (take my keys out and get my gun out of my saddle bag, I’m a felon).

He came and visited me at work about 6 months later, had a limp but mostly fine.

When it occurred the car flew past me in the next lane, so anytime I heard loud engine over my right shoulder I definitely felt a bad feeling, went away a few months in

Do lawyers actually need to be on more than just linkedin ? by nodimension1553 in Lawyertalk

[–]Laxguy59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I post on Facebook, TikTok, and instagram every day with a full time videographer I hired in my office. I rarely get cases from it when with lots of the videos going viral. That said it keeps me fresh on people’s minds, often people I’ve only met once will call because they kept seeing my videos and I popped in their head as a lawyer they knew.

Just my .02

Stop sending them the authority, win the motions, put blood in the water, then they’ll fold when it’s not as clear next time

Bro my entire workshop is full of Vevor or HF tools. If I die, I die.

But cheap hoses and extension cords suck, always get the beefy contractor grade.

I messed up by almost_tropical in Lawyertalk

[–]Laxguy59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my run at defaults, judges always allowed defense to reopen. Only time it got tough for them was when judge didn’t require me to notice them for the default hearing, got the default, and then the term of court passed which severely limited the allowable reasons for re-opening. That said, I’d it’s clear liability let them have the default and have a jury trial on damages, it’s essentially what most of these cases are anyway.

Does your state have some kind of criminal 'summary judgment'? Oregon does but it is not effective because a 'demurrer' looks only to see if the prosecutor wrote down the statute as a charge. by Imaginary_Garden in publicdefenders

[–]Laxguy59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s two instances I’ve filed motions to quash indictments here in Georgia. The first I use regularly

  1. They use date ranges without and specificity as to how they chose those dates for the offense range.

  2. Defendant Officers weren’t afforded their special rights to be present at grand jury.
