LawTube - Lawyers sperging at each other on YouTube

[im5!XxhO]

Class action are usually a group of people who suffered some form of damage suing one big entity for compensation.

You would have to do a case for each collection agent and prove for each individual case that deceptive practices and fake legal documents caused damages.

Also if they actually managed to do that good luck collecting. Contrary to a corporation he would just go bankrupt and malpractice insurance also has caps as far as I know. At least that's how insurance works here.

Honestly, there is no way Joe comes out of this not looking scummy. And it will be very telling who on lawtube will cover for him.

The observation has probably been made before but you've got to imagine that a good lawyer would be practising law not making videos on YouTube.

I believe only a good lawyer can make good youtube videos about law, so there is possibility for some overlap.
But I agree insofar that lawyers who stop practicing the lawyer will eventually stop being good lawyers and their commentary and content quality will suffer accordingly.

There are a few with actual criminal defense experience who also take a lot of time to research cases and the people that are part of them and offer interesting and well thought out commentary that goes beyond just watching a stream and reacting to it.

Those "good lawyers" are obviously a tiny minority and no matter what people do, they should never hire a lawyer because they saw him on youtube talking about how "easy it is to get that dismissed".

[EDIT] Link to yesterdays Daily Mail tabloid rag article mentioning our very own Lawtube Andrea Burkhart once again.

Joe's legacy will be this case being cited over and over in cases where lawyers beat collection agents over the head with this decision.
The dodgy intimidation tactics are the norm for the business and every agent who keeps doing it will run full steam ahead into this precedent.

[EDIT] Clarification. By which I mean creating fake documents that give the impression of being official to trick debtors into responding where they are not obligated to.

FDCPA already had fee-shifting. The only thing this case answers is whether in New York District Court, you can treat having to pay attorney fees in an underlying action that gives rise to an FDCPA claim as damages in and of itself, and the answer appears to be yes.

Social media incentives and Lawtube in general operates as an anathema to the competent practice of law.

From the onset, you have a need to provide unconventional or "interesting" takes to garner attention, which generally causes people to act in a more partisan or extreme posture to differentiate yourself as a speaker. Being boring and right takes a back seat to being interesting and wrong. Inevitably, the people who succeed most in these spaces are people who parrot back the biases of their audience or what they want to hear more than actual commentary or analysis.

In LawTube specifically creates a breeding ground for bad information. The format of providing off-the-cuff commentary leads to commentator taking a shoot-from-the-hip approach or live reactions without prior review. Actual practicing lawyers spend several hours, if not days, considering legal issues and filings before providing an analysis to a client or writing their own response. The reason for this is pretty obvious: law is complicated and easy to get wrong, even if you're legally educated.

Unless you're the DUI Guy and litigated thousands of basically the same case (and ONLY limiting your commentary to the type of case you actually know), it's likely that there's some nuance to an argument or fact that you cannot just conjure the right outcome from nothing. Not to mention there's a lot you can potentially fuck up just by being unfamiliar with the particular jurisdiction's rules of procedure.

That moron managed to get dragged into the WhattheHales litigation shitstorm with his clickbait videos.

Well deserved. The real lolcows are the "WhattheHales", not the grimy grifter grandma harassing them.

 

[Balldo's Gate]

This tidbit from the third case that comes up with searching Joe's name on Courtlistener's Recap search:

This is a purported transcript from an earlier related case presented as an exhibit in a filing downloadable through Courtlistener's docket for a case filed in 2022. (See Document Number 3, Attachment 7, Exhibit 3 for the full transcript)



"Now plaintiff's counsel has engaged in substantial litigation misconduct before me."
....
"So Mr. Nierman, I want no more proceedings in federal court trying unlawfully to interfere with New York State proceedings. Thank you."




It appears to refer to this case, but no documents are available on the Courtlistener site yet.

Sad news. The Lead Attorney has bone cancer and says he has about 5 years to live.

Full stream here:

Someone on Destiny's Reddit clipped the important part.

Very interesting video. Firstly, without intending to be funny, just for information: you're using the stethoscope the wrong way around, Lead Attorney:

That said, I didn’t watch the entire video (as it’s almost 5 hours long), but the little I watched made me surprised by Lead Attorney's charisma. He probably reflected on all of this for quite a while before coming public, and he seems to be handling it all very maturely. He discussed very serious topics in a quite relaxed manner, which isn’t naturally easy. And he talked about his experience of the whole process, which I found very interesting. The use of the soundboard and multiple interruptions to read superchats were the only things that made me want to stop listening, though.

He doesn't confirm as far as I've watched, but from what he mentioned about the diagnostic and treatment process (use of steroids, autologous bone marrow transplant), it seems to be some type of Lymphoma with a initial bone marrow invasion at diagnosis. Undergoing an autologous bone marrow transplant isn't easy (nor cheap); he described the process very well (@ ~2h40min: The doctors’ CRAZY plan to save my life).

When doctors give a 5-year expectancy, it is based on past data statistics; there will always be deviations from the norm, and as time goes on, treatments advance, and the prognosis changes. So I hope he remains resilient without losing sight of reality. And I pray for the best for him!

I went into it expecting some kind of click bait. "Hey guys I had a tiny skin cancer removed. CRAZY - RIGHT?"
Besides a handful of clips here and there, I haven't watched him much, just this stream and his Rekieta arrest stream, but while they are both quite long, I enjoyed his presentations. I definitely hope for the best for him.

They deserve a thread, but I'd suck start a shotgun than having to document all that cancer

"Now plaintiff's counsel has engaged in substantial litigation misconduct before me."

Joe and his history of being a slimy faggy shekelhunter is amazing.
I wonder what else you will find if you keep looking. I wish local courts had a functioning full database of court proceedings.

It's almost like everyone still defending the Balldo cuck is seriously sus.

I honestly didn't think anyone would touch it. It will be interesting how Joe reacts and hopefully someone can get access to his local streams.

He is a good talker but his content is too nigga centric for me and he abuses the siren sound effect way too much.

Now as for joe, here's my suggestion: buy mindsets debt and chase him down online to get him to pay. Content (which means shekels) plus shekels towards paying your fine if you manage to get him to pay.

Meme Copium did a video about it, and IIRC Legal Mindset did a members only local stream on it as well.

Fortunate for Andrew that debt is (probably) not valid anymore (I think it was before 2019 iirc). The statue of limitations for unsecured debt (aka credit cards) in FL is 5 years. If someone would try to collect on that debt and it is contested, it will be dismissed.

If you can dodge process long enough, your in the clear. It would be funny for Joe to seek out Andrew's debt though, could probably get it for half a cent on the dollar, or even less. Joe may violate the FDCPA again leading to a very hilarious lawltuber v lawltuber battle.

 

[Third World Aristocrat]

Which got us him telling us we need to "be better."

Fuck you Joe. YOU need to be better.

Stop fixating on this idiocy.
Grow beyond it kiwis, you will be happier.

I am impressed that Sean is standing up to the bullies in Lawtube and does not back down from covering topics that will surely get him in hot waters with the people he used to appear on panels with. He used to be so shy and meek, easily talked over by the likes of Nick and Joe.

But if lawtubers become lolcows they deserve to be covered.

Good on you @Potentially Criminal
Good video!
