    Jun 17 2025

    Watch the YouTube version of this episode HERE.

    Are you a law firm looking to adopt AI within their firm? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer Podcast, Tyson interviews Dan Schnurbusch about the evolving landscape of legal case management tools and the impact of AI on the legal profession. Dan shares his experiences with platforms like Clio, Monday.com, and Airtable, emphasizing the need for flexible, integrated solutions.

    Case management tools in law firms are essential to streamlining processes and ensuring that cases are dealt with effectively. Dan shares the lack of available all in one legal software solutions. Using different softwares for bookkeeping, case management and report writing can cause issues in automation and efficiency for firms. It is costly to have multiple softwares and many companies are still working on creating comprehensive tools for law firms.

    Dan and Tyson discuss the future of law as it relates to AI. Statistics show that the cost of AI has decreased, compared to other sectors. This means that it is possible for more AI tools to emerge to help different sectors do their work faster and more efficiently. Dan shares his opinion that AI can help everyone do their work and sectors that refuse to adopt AI will suffer compared to companies that do.

  • This Agentic Framework Feels Like Cheating
    Jun 14 2025

    In this second installment of our AI Agent Frameworks series, Tyson Mutrux breaks down one of the most powerful (yet underused) strategies for scaling legal workflows:

    Tyson simplifies this complex concept using real-world law firm examples and an 8-year-old-friendly sandwich analogy. You'll walk away with a clear understanding of how to:

    • Run multiple AI agents simultaneously
    • Combine results for deeper insights and faster outputs
    • Avoid logic-breaking mistakes in your builds
    • Apply this framework to written discovery, demand letters, motion analysis, and more

    Whether you’re deep into AI agent workflows or just getting started, this episode gives you the blueprint to work smarter—not just faster.

  • She Said No to Burnout and Yes to a Different Kind of Law Firm
    Jun 10 2025

    Watch the YouTube version of this episode HERE


    Are you a lawyer looking for topics in being transparent and present? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer Podcast, Tyson interviews attorney Ruma Mazumdar, who transitioned from commercial litigation to founding a remote law firm during the pandemic. They discuss the motivations behind this career shift, the challenges and benefits of remote work, and strategies for maintaining transparency and a positive team culture.

    Ruma shares how her litigation experience helps her in real estate law, especially when going through the dispute process. The transition into real estate was smoother for Ruma due to her litigation background, which helps her resolve disputes very early one before they get heated. For those who are hoping to transition into an area of law that is not heavy in court battles, experience in litigation can help with getting deals or cases settled quicker and can help in attracting clients.

    Ruma speaks to the importance of being present with clients, especially working in a post-COVID environment where many offices are fully remote. When working with clients, giving them your full attention helps with gaining their trust. A client is looking to you to help them resolve their issues and if you are not present, it can cause clients to feel like you don't care about their case or you don't know how to manage your time and responsibilities. Ensure to always remain present with each client so you can be the best lawyer possible!

    Are you looking for a unique way to change how to market to clients? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer podcast, host Tyson Mutrux delves into the art of storytelling for law practices, inspired by Peter Guber, a renowned author and film producer.


    Tyson shares how to effectively tell a story as a lawyer. It is important to begin with a challenge, obstacle or question. This will capture the emotional attention of the audience and keep them interested. Then the struggle is introduced to get the audience to identify and relate to a person. From there, the resolution is shared, where the climax occurs leading to an emotional release from the audience. The transformation involves the lesson learned from the situation. Lastly, there is a call to action, where there is an invitation for the audience to reflect and act. All of these steps can be used when telling a story to a potential client through marketing and social media efforts.

It is important that you have trust with those in your firm to accomplish tasks.


    Kyle provides some strategies on how to integrate core value in the hiring process. It is crucial to hire staff who align with the core values you have for the firm.
