Crime Time: With Virginia Defense Attorneys

We were lucky to have the "homecoming queen" of Immigration Court join us as a guest on this episode. Ofelia Calderon is a funny, smart, and caring attorney about all things immigration. She had no problem schooling us lowly criminal attorneys on the do's and dont's of best practices in our criminal cases when our clients are not United States citizens.

Episode 32: Lawyers Need Help Too!

It used to be that mental health and wellness was never discussed. It is now a topic many are open to talking about and people are now encouraged to seek help or be open with a family member, friend, colleague, therapist, or whoever about anything they may be struggling with in their life. Attorneys are no exception to this. In fact attorneys are even more at risk to struggle with stress and anxiety and depression due to the very nature of the work they do. In today's episode our special guest is a friend and former defense attorney turned prosecutor, Lavonda Graham Williams. We talk about the stress attorneys have in their daily lives, how to cope with those issues, and stress that it is ok to need, ask for, or seek help.
