    S1EP77: The Trials of Injury Law | Understanding Postpartum and Legal Complexities...

    Lindsay Clancy Trial Update & How a Rear-End Crash Became a Six-Figure Settlement | We Win Injury Law Podcast Hosts Tyler Todd and Jaren Sandberg open with an update on the Lindsay Clancy trial, which ended in a mistrial after a 12-person jury could not reach a unanimous decision on whether Clancy was criminally responsible for the deaths of her three children. The jury was reportedly divided 11–1, with one juror holding a different position from the other 11. Tyler and Jaren discuss the public reaction surrounding the jurors, the debate over postpartum psychosis and criminal responsibility, the defense's arguments regarding Clancy's mental health and medication, and the broader question of how highly publicized cases and social media can shape public perceptions of a trial. They also discuss the possible next steps in the case, while prosecutors had not announced whether they would pursue a retrial at the time of the discussion. The conversation then shifts to a real Utah personal injury case involving a rear-end collision that ultimately resulted in a significant six-figure settlement. The hosts explain how the case came to the firm through a chiropractor referral and discuss Utah's personal injury protection system, including the $3k minimum PIP medical-benefit amount under Utah law. The client continued experiencing headaches, neck and back pain, and neurological symptoms following the crash and received treatment through pain management and a concussion clinic. After the insurance company made a low pre-suit offer that did not adequately account for the medical expenses and injuries involved, the firm filed a lawsuit, took depositions, developed the medical evidence, and prepared the case for mediation. Tyler and Jaren explain why some injury cases cannot be fairly evaluated through a quick settlement offer, how depositions and medical documentation can affect negotiations, and why insurers must account for the specific evidence and risks presented by each case. The episode ultimately highlights the work that can happen behind the scenes between an accident and a successful settlement. Topics covered: * Lindsay Clancy trial update * Massachusetts criminal responsibility * Postpartum psychosis and the insanity defense * Jury deliberations and a mistrial * Public reaction and social media surrounding trials * Possible next steps in the Clancy case * Utah rear-end accident claims * Utah PIP coverage * Chiropractor referrals and injury cases * Headaches and neck/back injuries after a crash * Concussion and neurological symptoms * Pain management and continued medical treatment * Pre-suit settlement offers * Filing a personal injury lawsuit * Depositions * Medical evidence * Mediation and settlement negotiations * Why some injury cases take time to resolve * Client-focused personal injury representation If you or someone you love has been injured in a car accident, motorcycle accident, or another type of accident in Utah, contact We Win Injury Law to learn more about your legal options and schedule a free consultation. 📍 We Win Injury Law | Serving communities throughout Utah St. George | Cedar City | Hurricane | Orem | Salt Lake County WE WIN FOR YOU.

    S1EP76: We Win Injury Law: Unpacking the HYROX Controversy and Settlement Success

    HYROX Controversy, Athlete Safety & A Two-Year Motorcycle Crash Settlement | We Win Injury Law Podcast Hosts Tyler Todd and Jaren Sandberg recap a HYROX weekend in Salt Lake City, explain what HYROX is, and discuss the controversy surrounding the 2026 HYROX Beijing event after Australian athlete Joanna Wietrzyk experienced sudden fecal incontinence during the race and continued competing. The incident sparked significant online backlash, and HYROX co-founder Moritz Fürste later apologized, saying organizers should have intervened and announcing new procedures for similar situations. The conversation then shifts from sports and safety to personal injury law with a motorcycle-versus-car case that settled through mediation approximately two years after the crash. The hosts discuss the evidence involved, including allegations that the driver failed to yield after running a stop sign, witness testimony, and dash-cam footage. They also break down the defense's allegations that the motorcyclist was traveling 15–20 mph over the posted 25 mph speed limit and was impaired, as well as the role expert testimony and evidence disputes can play in a personal injury case. Tyler and Jaren also explain Utah's comparative-negligence rules and how allegations of fault against an injured person can affect a potential recovery. Under Utah law, a plaintiff may recover when their share of fault does not meet or exceed the combined fault threshold specified by statute. The episode also discusses Utah Rule of Evidence 403 and how courts can exclude relevant evidence when its probative value is substantially outweighed by risks such as unfair prejudice, confusing the issues, or misleading the jury. Finally, the hosts discuss the settlement process, the risks both sides face when preparing a case for trial, and why evidence can significantly affect the value and outcome of a motorcycle accident claim. Topics covered: * HYROX Salt Lake City * The HYROX Beijing controversy * Athlete and spectator safety * Sportsmanship vs. health and safety * Motorcycle accident claims * Failure to yield and stop-sign crashes * Dash-cam and witness evidence * Allegations of speeding and impairment * Comparative negligence in Utah * Expert witnesses in personal injury cases * Utah Rule of Evidence 403 * Mediation and settlement negotiations * Motorcycle injury cases If you or someone you love has been injured in a motorcycle accident or another type of accident, contact We Win Injury Law to learn more about your legal options and schedule a free consultation. 📍 We Win Injury Law | Serving communities throughout Utah St. George | Cedar City | Hurricane | Orem | Salt Lake County WE WIN FOR YOU.

    Justice for Tupac: 30 Years Later, Duane “Keefe D” Davis Convicted On the We Win Injury Law Podcast, hosts Tyler Todd and Jaren Sandberg discuss the 30-year mystery surrounding Tupac Shakur’s 1996 Las Vegas shooting and the recent 2026 conviction of Duane “Keefe D” Davis for first-degree murder with deadly weapon and gang-involvement enhancements, with sentencing set for October 13 and potential life in prison. They talk about Tupac’s music, fame, and long-running “still alive” conspiracy theories, noting Davis’s 2019 memoir and other statements were used against him. The conversation broadens to themes of delayed justice, accountability, and enhancements in criminal sentencing, including an anecdote about a “sweet grandma” charged via a gun enhancement, plus concerns about violence, social media, video games, and recent campus and family tragedies. They close by relating justice in criminal cases to compensation. 00:00 Podcast Welcome 00:35 Where Were You in 1996 01:09 Tupac Favorites and Rap Era 05:41 Tupac Alive Conspiracy 08:40 New Arrest and Vegas Shooting 09:49 Justice After 30 Years 11:22 Memoir Confession Evidence 12:24 Verdict and Sentencing Details 13:44 Enhancements and Did He Do It 14:50 Why Would He Admit It 15:44 Thug Life Banter 15:56 Adrenaline And Normalcy 16:37 Sweet Grandma Trial 20:46 Violence And Media 25:04 Justice And Accountability 26:31 Campus Chaos Liability 30:21 Tupac Wrap Up ABOUT WE WIN INJURY LAW The We Win Injury Law Podcast breaks down real cases, major legal stories, personal injury law, liability, insurance, negligence, current events, and the legal questions behind the headlines.

    S1EP74: Social Media Obsession & Meta's Billion-Dollar Youth Safety Settlement | We Win Injury Podcast

    Lindsay Clancy Trial, Social Media Obsession & Meta's Billion-Dollar Youth Safety Settlement | We Win Injury Law Podcast... Why are we so obsessed with watching trials unfold in real time? From viral courtroom clips and TikTok theories to one of the most closely watched trials in America, social media is changing the way the public follows and reacts to the legal system. In this episode of the We Win Injury Law Podcast, Tyler Todd and Jaron Sandberg discuss the public fascination with high-profile trials, the Lindsay Clancy case, social media algorithms, criminal responsibility, and the major multistate legal action involving Meta and youth safety. THE LINDSAY CLANCY CASE At the time this episode was recorded, the jury in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial had spent five days deliberating and reported that it was unable to reach a unanimous decision. The case centered on a devastating and largely undisputed question: What happened and was Lindsay Clancy legally criminally responsible for her actions? Clancy admitted to killing her three children in 2023. Her defense argued that she was suffering from severe mental illness and should not be held criminally responsible, while prosecutors argued that she acted deliberately and understood her actions. The jury was ultimately unable to reach a unanimous verdict, and a judge declared a mistrial on September 4, 2026. A mistrial is not a conviction or an acquittal, and the future of the criminal case remains subject to further legal proceedings. META, SOCIAL MEDIA & YOUTH SAFETY The conversation then turns to one of the biggest technology and consumer-protection stories in the country. Utah and dozens of other states reached a major agreement with Meta over allegations concerning the safety of young people on Facebook and Instagram. The states alleged that Meta used features that encouraged excessive use by young people and failed to adequately protect younger users from certain harms. Those were legal allegations not findings made by a jury after trial. The agreement includes substantial financial payments and proposed changes involving youth safety, age assurance, parental tools, and how certain platform features operate for younger users. The agreement remains subject to the applicable legal approval process. As technology becomes a bigger part of everyday life, questions about corporate responsibility, product design, consumer protection, and personal accountability are becoming more complicated than ever. WHY ARE TRIALS BECOMING ENTERTAINMENT? Court cases that once received limited media coverage can now generate millions of views overnight. A single clip can go viral. A witness can become a meme. And millions of people can develop strong opinions about a case without ever seeing the full evidence presented in court. We discuss whether social media is giving the public greater access to the justice system or creating a new problem where algorithms and viral moments influence public perception before a case is fully understood. ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 00:00 — Podcast Welcome 00:28 — Why Are Trials Trending? 01:14 — What We're Discussing Today 02:09 — Holy War Rivalry Talk 03:30 — BYU & Hawaii Sports Memories 05:48 — Lindsay Clancy Jury Deliberations 10:14 — The Question of Intent and Planning 12:26 — Questions and Online Theories 14:54 — Breaking Down the Defense Strategy 15:40 — Trial Surprises & Predictions 19:15 — Questions About the Investigation 20:27 — Why Accident Investigations Matter 22:32 — The Importance of Reconstruction 24:01 — Clancy Trial Predictions 25:00 — How Algorithms Shape Trial Opinions 29:32 — The Meta Settlement Debate 32:44 — Social Media and Alleged Addiction by Design 36:35 — Corporate vs. Personal Responsibility 40:23 — Final Thoughts & Updates ABOUT WE WIN INJURY LAW The We Win Injury Law Podcast breaks down real cases, major legal stories, personal injury law, liability, insurance, negligence, current events, and the legal questions behind the headlines.

    S1EP73: Postpartum Psychosis or Family Annihilation? A Legal Exploration

    The Clancy Case: Postpartum Psychosis, Criminal Responsibility & Trial Strategy | We Win Injury Law Podcast The Lindsay Clancy case has become one of the most widely discussed criminal cases in recent years, raising difficult questions about postpartum mental health, criminal responsibility, trial strategy, and the legal system. In this episode of the We Win Injury Law Podcast, attorneys Tyler Todd and Jaron Sandberg discuss the publicly reported allegations and legal issues surrounding the Massachusetts case while emphasizing an important fact: at the center of every high-profile criminal case are real people and a devastating tragedy. The conversation examines the deaths of Lindsay Clancy's three children and the criminal case against her. Lindsay Clancy has been charged in connection with their deaths, and her mental health before the tragedy has become a major part of the legal discussion surrounding the case. The hosts discuss the difference between mental illness and criminal responsibility, the legal arguments surrounding postpartum psychosis and psychiatric treatment, and how attorneys may approach evidence involving a defendant's mental state. The prosecution has the burden of proving the charges under the applicable legal standard. Attorneys, judges, witnesses, experts, and jurors all play different roles in determining how the legal process unfolds. This episode discusses the publicly available information and legal issues surrounding the Clancy case. Allegations, legal arguments, testimony, and online theories should not automatically be treated as established facts.

    S1EP72: Nervana Pain & Restoration: Healing the Pain Within...

    Nervana Pain & Restoration: Chronic Pain, Neuroplastic Pain & Nervous System Recovery | We Win Injury Law Podcast What if pain continues even after an injury has healed? In this episode of the We Win Injury Law Podcast, we sit down with Kim Nelson, a registered nurse with more than 20 years of nursing experience, to discuss chronic pain, neuroplastic pain, nervous system regulation, injury recovery, and the tools she uses through Nervana Pain & Restoration. Kim shares her background in nursing, including her experience in emergency and trauma care in Southern Utah, before explaining her own journey through burnout and mental health challenges and how that experience eventually led her to focus on the connection between the nervous system, stress, pain, and recovery. We discuss an important topic that many people dealing with long-term pain may struggle with: pain can be real even when imaging doesn't provide a complete explanation for why someone is still hurting. Kim explains the concept of neuroplastic pain, which refers to pain involving learned or ongoing pain pathways and the brain's perception of danger. The conversation also explores nervous system dysregulation, chronic pain, CRPS, pain pathways, and why the experience of pain can be influenced by more than tissue damage alone. Kim walks us through the different tools and approaches she discusses with patients at Nervana Pain & Restoration, including targeted electrical nerve stimulation, IV therapy, education, and pain reprocessing concepts. She also demonstrates the Neuromed device during the episode and explains how she incorporates different recovery tools into her approach. This episode is especially relevant for anyone dealing with chronic pain, persistent symptoms after an injury, nerve-related symptoms, or a long recovery process and looking to better understand the relationship between the brain, nervous system, and pain. IN THIS EPISODE, WE DISCUSS: What neuroplastic pain isWhy chronic pain can continue after an injuryThe difference between acute pain and chronic painHow the brain and nervous system are involved in the experience of painNervous system regulation and stressThe connection between trauma, stress, and physical symptomsCRPS and complex chronic pain conditionsWhy imaging results do not always perfectly match a person's level of painWhy some people have abnormal scans without significant symptomsWhy others can experience severe pain without a clear explanation on imagingPain pathways and the brain's danger signalsThe importance of patients feeling heard and believedKim Nelson's nursing and trauma-care backgroundBurnout, mental health, and Kim's personal journeyTargeted electrical nerve stimulation and the Neuromed deviceIV therapy and recovery supportFunction, quality of life, and living with chronic painAlternative and complementary approaches people may explore during recoveryTIMESTAMPS: 00:00 — Podcast Welcome 00:51 — Ryan Reynolds Debate 03:17 — Meet Kim Nelson 04:19 — Kim's Nursing Background 06:22 — Burnout, Stress & Healing 09:19 — What Is Neuroplastic Pain? 12:42 — Nervous System Recovery Tools 17:37 — Acute Pain vs. Chronic Pain 22:56 — Why Patients Look for Other Options 26:40 — Focusing on Function & Quality of Life 27:56 — When Imaging Provides Relief and Validation 29:02 — Abnormal Scans Without Pain 30:21 — Pain Perception & Neural Pathways 32:35 — Why Patients Need to Feel Heard 34:40 — From Nursing & Trauma Care to Burnout 37:50 — A Personal Mental Health Turning Point 40:25 — Neuroplastic Pain & Nirvana Pain & Restoration 42:54 — Functional Wins & Quality of Life 47:22 — Neuromed Device Demonstration 54:02 — IV Therapy, Recovery & Surgery Concerns 56:59 — Finding Nirvana & Living With Chronic Pain Labels 59:29 — Wrap Up & Safety Reminder ABOUT WE WIN INJURY LAW The We Win Injury Law Podcast breaks down personal injury, accidents, chronic pain, insurance, negligence, liability, medical issues connected to injuries, wrongful death, and real legal questions affecting people in Utah and beyond.

    S1EP71: Navigating Sharky Waters: Legal Insights from the Jaws of the Law...

    Sharks, Jaws, and Liability: Injury Lawyers Break Down Who Gets Sued | We Win Injury Law Podcast Who gets sued when a dangerous shark attack happens and everyone knows the danger is out there? In this episode of the We Win Injury Law Podcast, St. George, Utah injury lawyers Tyler Todd and Jaren Sandberg take their legal analysis somewhere unexpected: the ocean, shark attacks, and the classic movie *Jaws*. From viral shark videos captured by drones and GoPros to Tyler's own close encounters with shark fins while surfing in Hawaii, the hosts ask an important personal injury law question: When someone gets hurt, who could potentially be legally responsible? Using Jaws as a hypothetical legal case study, Tyler and Jaren break down potential issues involving negligence, notice, foreseeability, assumption of risk, wrongful death, emotional distress, government liability, dangerous-property claims, product liability, and the duty to warn. Could the fictional town of Amity potentially face liability after reopening its beaches despite warnings of danger? Could government immunity limit a claim? What happens when officials have notice of a known hazard but allegedly fail to warn the public? Do people who voluntarily join a dangerous shark hunt assume some of the risks involved? 00:00 — Podcast Kickoff 00:32 — Bus Injury Settlement & Multiple Insurance Carriers 01:55 — Shark Videos and Ocean Panic 03:46 — Tyler's Hawaii Shark Encounter 07:11 — More Close Calls in the Ocean 09:38 — How Injury Lawyers Think About Hazards 10:16 — Skate Ramp Liability 13:11 — Who Gets Sued in *Jaws*? 14:25 — The Beach Cover-Up and Potential Liability 19:45 — Shark Warnings, Notice & Foreseeability 21:51 — What Happens When Swimmers Aren't Warned? 22:06 — Shark Bounty Hunt and Assumption of Risk 24:35 — Could Quint's Death Create a Wrongful Death Claim? 28:30 — Brody vs. Quint: Negligence and Responsibility 30:14 — PETA, Sharks and Conservation 32:40 — CO2 Tank and Potential Product Liability 34:39 — Can Witnesses Claim Emotional Distress? 36:56 — Real Beach Warnings, Shark Flags & Safety 39:44 — Wrap Up & Free Legal Consultations Sharks, Surfing and Real-World Safety Tyler and Jaren also discuss real-world shark encounters and why warning systems matter. Shark risks and warning practices can vary significantly by location, local conditions, and the policies of the agencies or organizations responsible for beach safety. The takeaway is simple: pay attention to official warnings, beach closures, posted safety information, lifeguards, and changing ocean conditions. And whether you're in the ocean, on a boat, at a skate park, on someone else's property, or driving on Utah roads, understanding the risks around you can help you make safer decisions.

    S1EP70: Pedal to the Metal: The Truth About Utah's Driving Habits...

    Utah Ranked 49th for Driving: Why Are Utah Drivers So Bad? | We Win Injury Law Podcast Are Utah drivers really among the worst in America? A 2026 study ranked Utah 49th out of 50 states for driving, with only North Dakota ranking lower. The study, conducted by Hard Rock Bet, looked at multiple driving-related indicators, including accidents, speeding-related incidents, DUI rates, speeding tickets, miles driven, licensed drivers, and other factors. According to the study, Utah recorded 23.8 accidents per 1,000 drivers and 9.4 speeding-related incidents per 1,000 people, placing Utah near the bottom nationally. In this episode of the We Win Injury Law Podcast, Utah personal injury attorneys Tyler Todd and Jaren Sandberg take a closer look at the ranking and ask a bigger question: Why are there so many crashes on Utah roads and what can Utah drivers do about it? Drawing on their experience representing people injured in motor vehicle accidents, Tyler and Jaren discuss the driving behaviors they commonly see behind serious crashes and compare Utah driving with their experiences on roads in other parts of the country.  The conversation goes beyond the ranking. The episode examines whether Utah’s rapid growth, busy roads, construction, higher-speed roadways, winter conditions, tourists, younger drivers, and driving habits could contribute to the challenges Utah faces on its roads. Some of these factors are discussed as possible explanations rather than established causes of Utah’s ranking. 00:00 — Welcome and Setup 00:37 — Utah Ranked 49th for Driving 01:26 — San Diego Driving Contrast 04:07 — What Utah Crash Data Actually Shows 05:19 — How the 2026 Study Ranked Utah 06:53 — Weather, Speed, and Driving Habits 11:09 — Utah Speed Limits and Road Safety 15:11 — Utah's Population Growth & Construction 17:35 — Courtesy, Left-Lane Driving & Road Etiquette 23:35 — How Utah Drivers Can Do Better 26:16 — Final Call to Action How Can Utah Drivers Drive Better? Tyler and Jaren's message is simple: slow down, pay attention, follow the rules, and drive defensively. That means: • Stop running red lights and disregarding traffic signals. • Don't speed or drive too fast for conditions. • Don't drive distracted. • Never drive impaired. • Give other drivers enough space. • Yield the right-of-way when required. • Stay in your lane. • Pay attention in construction and work zones. • Leave earlier instead of rushing. • Share the road with motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians, and other drivers. • Expect other drivers to make mistakes and be prepared to react safely. If you've been seriously injured in a car accident, truck accident, motorcycle crash, pedestrian accident, or another preventable accident in Utah, understanding your rights can be important.
