    Guess What…WE FIXED IT [and we apologize about Rachael]

    Guess What…WE FIXED IT [and we apologize about Rachael]

    After learning we lost the audio for this episode in unforeseen circumstances, we did what any two lawyers would do and we f*cking fixed it. This episode we explore the US Supreme Court case of Strickland v. Washington which dictates when an attorney is ineffective and how we have to prove that in order to get our clients relief. Adriana and Rachael also discuss some cases and give examples of when attorneys can be ineffective. Next episode: how to survive law school!

I’m in the process of applying to law school and this podcast is reminding me that there is a purpose behind my degree. Rachel is my inspiration and helped me determine what type of law I want to pursue 💗💗

Great podcast

As someone on the other side of the courtroom, it’s interesting to hear a different perspective about the criminal justice system and post conviction issues.
