РЕКЛАМА
On this episode of Advances in Care , host Erin Welsh and Dr. Craig Smith, Chair of the Department of Surgery and Surgeon-in-Chief at NewYork-Presbyterian and Columbia discuss the highlights of Dr. Smith’s 40+ year career as a cardiac surgeon and how the culture of Columbia has been a catalyst for innovation in cardiac care. Dr. Smith describes the excitement of helping to pioneer the institution’s heart transplant program in the 1980s, when it was just one of only three hospitals in the country practicing heart transplantation. Dr. Smith also explains how a unique collaboration with Columbia’s cardiology team led to the first of several groundbreaking trials, called PARTNER (Placement of AoRTic TraNscatheteR Valve), which paved the way for a monumental treatment for aortic stenosis — the most common heart valve disease that is lethal if left untreated. During the trial, Dr. Smith worked closely with Dr. Martin B. Leon, Professor of Medicine at Columbia University Irving Medical Center and Chief Innovation Officer and the Director of the Cardiovascular Data Science Center for the Division of Cardiology. Their findings elevated TAVR, or transcatheter aortic valve replacement, to eventually become the gold-standard for aortic stenosis patients at all levels of illness severity and surgical risk. Today, an experienced team of specialists at Columbia treat TAVR patients with a combination of advancements including advanced replacement valve materials, three-dimensional and ECG imaging, and a personalized approach to cardiac care. Finally, Dr. Smith shares his thoughts on new frontiers of cardiac surgery, like the challenge of repairing the mitral and tricuspid valves, and the promising application of robotic surgery for complex, high-risk operations. He reflects on life after he retires from operating, and shares his observations of how NewYork-Presbyterian and Columbia have evolved in the decades since he began his residency.

×When people get scammed, they understandably want their money back yesterday. But scammers are sociopathic animals, not imbeciles. They do a good job of hiding what they are doing. Doing this in a way that gives victims the best shot at recovery takes work and a lot of it. We're happy to do the work for you at bergpc.com Music: Cybertrooper [the better version] by Sascha Ende Free download: https://filmmusic.io/song/12240-cybertrooper-the-better-version License (CC BY 4.0): https://filmmusic.io/standard-license…
When crypto is stolen in a pig butchering scam, it doesn’t disappear, though it certainly seems that way. Crypto is traceable. But how that’s done is difficult to explain. Chris Roberts is a forensic investigator focusing on cryptocurrency tracking. He joins the show this week to break down what crypto is, what the blockchain is, and how he finds the assets taken from clients who have fallen victim to this devastating crime. For more information, go to https://bergplummer.com/cryptocurrency-fraud-recovery/ Music: Cybertrooper [the better version] by Sascha Ende Free download: https://filmmusic.io/song/12240-cybertrooper-the-better-version License (CC BY 4.0): https://filmmusic.io/standard-license…
At bergpc.com , we represent victims of crypto scams. The rage our clients feel at the person who defrauded them is natural. But it is likely the person they’re so angry at was lured from their country of origin by the promise of a good paying job, only to be kidnapped, tortured, starved, beaten, and held against their will in a remote corner of Southeast Asia – forced to steal. They do not profit and in fact they're lucky to survive. The people who get rich aren’t the same people who conned our clients – they’re overseas slaveholders. It is these depraved sociopaths we’re trying to sue out of business.

Mike Engelhart, judge of the 151st District Court in Harris County, Texas is about to find out. Before taking the bench 16 years ago, Judge Engelhart was a formidable plaintiffs’ lawyer, trying all kinds of personal injury cases. On January 1, he returns to the practice at Kherkher Garcia, the Houston-based, nationally recognized plaintiffs’ firm. How has his time on the bench changed his approach? What’s he learned? Who is his favorite lawyer, and can I guilt him into saying it’s me for the work I do at bergpc.com ?

Some of the most wretched humans on the planet have figured out there’s a ready pool of people likely to fall for crypto scams – the people who’ve already fallen for it once. After stealing as much money as they can, they contact the same people under a different name, this time posing as lawyers able to help the victims recover what’s been stolen. For a small fee, of course. They’ve set up phony websites with AI images of lawyers, ready to get right back to stealing from the people they’ve already stolen from. For more on how to fight these scammers go here: https://bergplummer.com/cryptocurrency-fraud-recovery/ Plus, writing a letter to the judge explaining that you “misspoke” at the last hearing in order to correct the record and not leave the impression you were lying about something you got very, very wrong. Awkward.

When you mess up, you apologize – at least that’s what you do if you want to lose when you get sued. Why doing the morally normal thing is the worst choice you can make according to the Texas Rules of Evidence. Plus, Kamala Harris perfectly summarizes last week’s hour-long podcast in 29 seconds just to spite me and what it’s like to act as a judge for new lawyers (they are impressive as lawyers, I am impatient as a jurist). Note: A previous version of this edition indicated that the Texas Legislature sets the Rules of Evidence. That's incorrect and the episode has been updated. Thanks very much to an astute listener who pointed it out.

Other than lawyers and corporate executives, almost nobody really knows (or cares) what a fiduciary duty is, but everybody knows what betrayal means. When someone you trust turns on you, it can send you reeling. The same is true in business: Employees take your business’ secret information and start a competing company, a broker trades on your account just to earn a commission, a lawyer inflates a bill. In life, this is called “cheating.” In law, it’s breach of fiduciary duty. We deal with cases like this all the time at bergpc.com . Faithlessness is red meat for a jury – just about every member of the panel will have some experience with being betrayed in one way or another. Tying that feeling to the business equivalent and taking it to trial on today’s podcast.

After decades of insurance company propaganda about “lawsuit abuse” designed to get people to vote to deny themselves the right to recover if they’ve been hurt, jurors are now conditioned to believe injuries are exaggerated or even fabricated by the lawyers who represent victims. Houston injury lawyer Katie James (you know her as CarwreckKatie.com) joins to explain how she’s done it so successfully – how she picks juries, tries cases, presents and cross examines witnesses, and recovers for her clients. Stay tuned to the end to hear a follow-up Second Amendment discussion prompted by Vice President Kamala Harris’ warning that if you break into her house, you’re getting popped.

Dan Aykroyd is on the podcast. Do you really need more information? Ok, Aykroyd owns Crystal Head Vodka, which sued a competitor for stealing the bottle’s design. The design was created by Crystal Head’s other owner, legendary artist John Alexander. The case was tried, lost, appealed, sent back down. Then a new trial lawyer – one of the top 4 in the Berg family, David – took it to trial and won. Aykroyd, Alexander, and the other Berg join to tell the story – complete with an actual Perry Mason twist at the end.…
George Clooney opines about politics – again – despite my previous ruling that he is not to be taken seriously pursuant to Tex.R.Evid. 702. I thought I made that clear. Trump, just one week after the episode on this topic, gives the perfect example of a rambling, incoherent, nonresponsive answer to a simple, direct question. His response is stricken. Next, the “get back to the constitution” crowd melts down when the copyright clause of the constitution is gotten back to and the Trump campaign is ordered to stop infringing on Shaft’s music. Finally, another week, another mass shooting; full text of the Second Amendment, not the NRA’s abridged version, is read and discussed.

If a politician is asked whether they voted yes or no on a bill and starts rambling about what an honor it is to be there and how a middle class kid from the Midwest never imagined they’d be in this position, there’s not much a reporter can do except ask the question again. But if a witness gives an answer like that, the judge will point his or her finger and order the witness to answer it with the threat of contempt (and, theoretically, anyway, jail time) backing up the order. All of life should be this way.…
Every four years, Donald Trump whines about what people are “allowed” to say. But even Walter Sobchak knows prior restraint is unconstitutional. General rules, though, are made to be broken. A court could, for example, order a competitor to stop publishing ads saying the queso at Mar-A-Lago is made with greasy used bronzer and Aqua Net particulates (unless it’s true, and the makers of this podcast have no reason to believe it is, though it certainly sounds right). Business disparagement is a real and sometimes very damaging thing. Commercial speech is speech, but it isn’t exactly free. We handle many of these cases at bergpc.com .…
Donald Trump thinks Kamala Harris’ huge Detroit rally was AI and nobody was really there, which is something a person says out loud in public if they’re not not mentally ill. If this was a lawsuit, Trump’s lawyers would be in front of a judge begging that he not be required to submit to a psychiatric evaluation - a fight they would lose. Plus, we hit a big milestone this week in the fight to recover stolen crypto for our clients at bergpc.com . A judge in Harris County, Texas entered an injunction freezing the wallets we identified – one more critical hurdle cleared before we find out whether we can get victims their money back.…
Saying Trump "does things outside the guardrails" is understated at best. But what does that actually mean? Why does it matter when a candidate concedes and why does lying about an election harm customs and norms? You’d think the answer would be obvious – and you’re probably right, but what does that have to do with jury trials? A lot, actually. Let's discuss how democratic norms translate to courtroom conduct and respect for the rule of law as it relates to the case you’re going to email me about at gberg@bergplummer.com .…
Minnesota Governor Tim Waltz’s observation that “these guys are just weird” is making Trump act even weirder, which seemed impossible just two weeks ago. Is demeaning and humiliating your opponent through pithy and dismissive observations as effective in court as it is in politics? Well, yeah unless it turns out you're the weirdo completely lacking in self-awareness. But Trump and Vance aren’t the only freaks. Self-righteous leftwing aholes are on the attack against potential Democratic VP candidate Josh Shapiro because a lot of the people who say they’re interested in equality and justice for everyone actually hate Jews.…
