Show Notes

Can YOU handle the truth? In this case the "truth" is the fact that we have a new episode and that it's about lawyers… so yes, you probably can handle that. Solicitors. Barristers. Attorneys. Lawyers. Just what are these various job titles and how to do they relate to courts and the law? We were approached by the witty and informative Peter Stafford, a barrister based in Dublin, and he took us through all the ways people work with the law and how it effects our day to day lives.
