Legal Grounds | Conversations on Life, Leadership & Law

After over three decades in the legal-trenches, Mike Bassett has learned to appreciate two things: good conversation & good coffee. Legal Grounds is an ongoing series of interviews with the people who are shaping our world - legal or otherwise. Witty, irreverent, & always thoughtful, these brief discussions fall somewhere between “Night Court” & Hopper’s “Nighthawks At The Diner”. With that in mind, we promise your coffee will still be warm when the podcast is done. (Legal Grounds was written, recorded, and produced by Dust Devil Press)

  1. Legal Grounds | Renée Pardo On the Next Generation of Female Attorneys, Stepping Away from an Established Career, & Anxious Advocacy

    Legal Grounds | Renée Pardo On the Next Generation of Female Attorneys, Stepping Away from an Established Career, & Anxious Advocacy

    Walking away from this week’s conversation I have a new theory:If time-machines existed, a lot of attorneys would still be trying their first case. We’ve talked before about how perfectionism runs deep in the legal profession, but the concept of Anxious Advocacy as a root cause for this trait is something I hadn’t run across until preparing for this latest episode. It’s also the reason for my time-machine theory. No matter if you win or lose, as a trial attorney, you are always...

    Legal Grounds | Darl Champion On Holding the Right People Accountable, Winning vs. Problem Solving, and the Importance of Civility in Leadership

    The line between zealous representation and being an obstinate ass is often said to be a fine-line to walk as attorneys. After all, if the OTHER side is playing hardball, the temptation to fight fire with MORE fire can almost seem like a responsibility. But as my guest today so eloquently puts it, “lawyers that fight over every issue do it because they don’t know the issues that actually matter.”This week I was lucky to be joined by veteran trial attorney and founding partner of The...

    Legal Grounds | Dr. Christina Marinakis On Evaluating Juries, the Changing Expectations for Evidence, and Why Diversity Is More Than Demographics

    There are few things more stressful as a trial attorney than the jury selection process. Even if you’re confident in your case, your arguments have been tested and refined, and every piece of evidence is on your side, picking jurors is a stark reminder that so much is out of your control. And because the ways in which all of us receive and retain information is changing, it’s up to attorneys to adapt the ways in which they approach jurors.From the effects of polarization,the expecta...

    Legal Grounds | Emily Stedman on Navigating the Billable-Hour, Developing the Next Generation, and Self-Worth Outside of the Law

    For as ever present as it is, the Billable-Hour is still one of those topics on the Defense side of the Bar that is deemed somewhat taboo. Some of this, I believe, comes from a natural - though not at all helpful - competitive mentality. After all, the number of hours we bill is frequently worn as a ‘Badge of Honor’, and so why would we want to “share our secrets”?But as my conversation today hopefully highlights, there is often a deeper set of reasons many Attorneys, myself included, co...

    Legal Grounds | Matt Cianflone On the Origins of the Doom-Loop, How Miscommunication is Mistaken for Malice, and the Benefits of Self-Talk

    Of the many many books I used to read to my sons, there are only a few that I could confidently recall, but a family favorite was (and remains) “Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day.”No matter what age, it’s good to be reminded that some days are just going to suck, and in a lot of cases - just like Alexander - these reasons are completely out of control. At the end of the book, Alexander is able to go to bed, reassured by his mother that everyone is allowed to hav...

    Legal Grounds | Karl Seelbach on the Future of Depositions, SKRIBE AI, & Why Law Needs to Overcome Its Tech Aversion

    Jokes about lawyers and technology are one of those things that tend to write themselves, but in my conversation this week with Karl Seelbach I walked away thinking about how the days of being a tech-averse profession may very well be coming to an end. A seasoned litigator, Karl is also the founder of SKRIBE AI, a software platform for capturing and analyzing legal testimony as an alternative to the traditional court reporting service. As someone who has taken more depositions than ...

    Legal Grounds | Anne Redcross Beehler on Building Relationships in Trial, Not Buying Into Bullies, and the Benefits of Being Underestimated

    When it comes to watching any sort of legal drama, be it television or film, most - if not all - of the scenes that take place inside the courtroom focus on either the lawyers, the judge, or the witness. But when it comes to the jury, we tend to only see them during opening or closing remarks, and even then they almost always act more as a set-piece than a character. Now occasionally you get the shot of a jury reacting to the most sensational part of a case, but for the most part th...

    Legal Grounds | Joe Bogdan On Relinquishing & Relearning Leadership, Why Better has No Finish-Line, and Using Small Transitions to Help Us Adapt to Larger Changes

    While I know there isn’t any science to back it up, somewhere in my 30’s I remember hearing the “Fact” that if you could do something for 30 days straight then - BOOM - it’s a habit. A sort of accelerated version of ‘practice makes perfect’. In reality, it’s often the spaces, people, and organizations we find ourselves immersed in that slowly but inevitably shape how we interact with the world.But as my guest this week reminds listeners, when leaders experience major transitions, we...
