Lawyer bashing: Do we deserve it? 💡
In this bold solo episode of the Legal Light Bulbs podcast, Verity White tackles a topic that every
lawyer has encountered but few are willing to discuss, lawyer bashing. Drawing from her experience
at a recent conference and years of working with in-house legal teams, Verity dives into the criticism
often directed at lawyers and asks the big question: Is it justified? (Spoiler alert: Sometimes, it is.)

You’ll uncover:

✅ Why lawyer bashing happens and how to handle it with grace.
✅ The real problem with unreadable, unusable advice - and how to fix it.
✅ Why blaming outdated tools or templates won’t cut it anymore.
✅ How small, simple improvements can transform your team’s reputation.

✅ Why tracking your own metrics is a game-changer for modern legal teams.

Verity cuts through the noise and gets straight to the heart of what it takes to transform how lawyers
work. From simplifying outdated templates to sharpening communication skills, she’s all about
practical, no-nonsense advice that you can actually use. Whether you're part of a scrappy in-house
legal team or just want to shake things up in your practice, this episode is packed with real-world
strategies and fresh ideas to help you deliver advice that’s clear, impactful, and impossible to ignore.
