Hello, Anna Richardson here. I just thought I'd leave you a quick voice note to tell you

0:06.6

about my new advice podcast. It can't just be me.

0:12.8

I'll be getting super honest about my own topsy-turvy life, as well as helping you solve your

0:18.1

life dilemmas with the support of some very special guests and experts. From Podimo

0:24.0

and Max created, it can't just be me, wherever you get your podcasts.

I've never heard it described that way, and I know a lot of our listeners are curious about

0:46.8

that's why we're asking these questions. But the fact that you've got to make sure that

0:51.2

the defense attorney is doing his job, because that brings up his clients' claim afterwards

0:57.2

of ineffective counsel, if he doesn't do his job correctly, then you have to go through the

1:00.4

1:33.5

discoveries at trial by ambush? No, it's discovery. Again, just like we do as far as giving

1:40.9

notice to defense lawyers about when their cases are going to be tried, we try our best on

1:46.3

getting our discovery out as quickly as we can. Again, because it does mean no good for

1:50.9

defense lawyers not to have their discovery. I mean, they can't advise their client or discuss

1:55.1

with their client what they think they should do if they can't fully appreciate a case. So,

2:00.5

I mean, we certainly, you know, there's times when we may be slow about it or we may miss something,

2:05.7

but by and large, I feel like we do a good job of getting what we're supposed to get to the
