For better or worse, Chaz's episode was no exception!
Let's just say that if you've ever wondered about Chaz's honest opinion on some of the most gossip-worthy topics in the Louisiana legal landscape, this episode *probably* touches on it! Ben presses for Chaz's honest opinion on all the local law gossip like *those* big billboard lawyers, how much someone can realistically be paid from a personal injury case, what sets our practice apart from the rest, what to NEVER say after a car crash, and MUCH more! Rounding out the little expose, Chaz talks about the craziest things he has ever encountered since starting his law career, and more. Plus, host Ben has zero shame as he asks Chaz what's the biggest settlement he's ever gotten for a PI client, which promptly leads Chaz into sharing yet another hot take on attorneys who focus on big checks & how they can be misleading about what really happens behind-the-scenes.

Heart, Hustle, and an Enduring Quest for Greatness: My Candid Convo with Super Bowl Champ Ray Calais

On this episode of Law Have Mercy! podcast, I settled into the studio with Raymond "Ray" Calais, for what turned out to be one of my absolute favorite episodes yet. An open book, Ray is a talented athlete, a fellow Cecilia native, and an all-around super likable guy. He showed up eager to share and our comfortable conversation traversed every topic we could possibly pack in: his pursuit and experiences in the NFL and what it's like to meet your heroes, the key to achieving your dreams, how to deal in the face of crushing adversity, what sets the truly elite apart in sports and in life, and much more. Whether you're a football fan, a Cecilia Bulldog, a big dreamer, or just someone who enjoys life hacks and inspiring tales, rest assured because this episode has something for you!
We kick things off on a high note with stories only a former NFL star could tell. From his college days with the Ragin' Cajuns here in Lafayette, LA to sharing the field with NFL legends like Tom Brady, Ray's journey is nothing short of cinematic. He paints a vivid picture of a young athlete's metamorphosis: his first brush with the opulence of NFL life, his reverence for childhood heroes & standout athletes who he'd learn were even more impressive close-up, and all that he was met with on his journey from La to LA.
With gripping detail, Ray recounts the rollercoaster of emotions young athletes face on Draft Day, the humbling beginnings of a rookie's first NFL practice, the precision demanded by the sport's elite, mental and physical nuances and split-second decisions that have the power to change everything, and the sometimes harsh realities of pursuing a career and dream that requires maximum effort and focus at all times yet offers far less of the comforts one might expect in return. In an emotional climax of the conversation, Ray vulnerably shares the devastating details of the incident that changed his life and career and the extreme highs and lows he faced in the months that followed as he achieved his ultimate lifelong career goal from the one place he least expected....the sidelines.
Wrapping up with personal reflections, Ray delves into the profound impact of his childhood influences, what motivates him today, advice for young athletes and big dreamers alike, nuggets of inspiration he has collected in sports and life, and just what is next in his tremendous journey to achieve his wildest dreams....again! Our longest-ever episode of this podcast, we dare you to listen and be disappointed by Ray's inspiring blend of heart, hustle, and his enduring quest for greatness.

With this in mind, learning the basic fundamentals Wes shares in this episode when it comes to family law are absolutely, irrefutably invaluable.
With the unparalleled insights provided by Wes' expertise, we promise to elevate your understanding of the family law basics you NEED to know in 2024 if you're currently in a relationship, considering engaging in a relationship, or parenting a child (currently or in the future). Tune in as we delve into the significance of prenuptial agreements, dissect the legal distinctions between separate and community property, and explore what it truly takes for a court to consider granting sole custody of a child. Make no mistake....these are family law fundamentals that can GREATLY impact your life and relationships, making this a critical listen for anyone who is currently-- or may become-- involved in any type of relationship in the foreseeable future.
In the realm of legal practice, resilience is key, and this episode navigates the emotional and mental demands that come with the territory. We paint a vivid picture of the challenges and rewards faced by
