17 - Lawyer Up! with Attorney Terry Stolly

This week, I am joined by Attorney Terry Stolly, Managing Partner at Thompson, Dunlap, and Heydinger - a law firm in west-central Ohio. We discuss the historical pattern for anti-lawyer jokes to kick off, then get into a discussion of whether everyone needs a lawyer and how to pick one. He educates me on the differences between the criminal and civil pathways for justice, and what attorney-client privilege is.

We move into whether the legal profession is ripe for digitization, why you should avoid the legal system if you can, and more.

Note - this episode was recorded prior to Elon Musk purchasing Tesla so we do discuss that in the future-tense.
