You’re Invited: The Lawyer’s Guide to Podcasting Launch Party in Bethesda!

Come join likeminded legal professionals who want to expand their reach, audience, and clientele through the art of podcasting!

On Wednesday, May 20, 2026, from 5:30–7:30 PM, we’re gathering at 4704 North Chelsea Lane, Bethesda, MD 20814 for an in‑person book launch party for The Lawyer’s Guide to Podcasting.

This guide has already helped lawyers, paralegals, and legal professionals find a clear, practical path into podcasting without needing to be “techy” to get it right. Now we’re bringing the conversation into the same room.

Expect a relaxed evening with DMV‑area lawyers, podcasters, and authors—plus drinks, snacks, and the chance to pick up The Lawyer’s Guide to Podcasting at $5 off (while supplies last) and have it signed.

The lawyers’ guide to podcasting will teach you practical ideas for show formats, the right gear for your show, and practical workflows while maintaining your ethics!

  • Who it’s for (lawyers, legal professionals, aspiring podcasters, legal tech community)

  • What you’ll walk away with (practical ideas for formats, gear, ethics, workflows).

Attendance is free, but space is limited. Please reserve your spot by midnight on May 18, 2026, so we can plan food and space.

🎙️ Ep. 114: Unlocking Legal Innovation: AI And IP With Matthew Veale of Patsnap

Our next guest is Matthew Veale, a European patent attorney and Patsnap's Professional Systems team member. He introduces the AI-powered innovation intelligence platform, Patsnap. Matthew explains how Patsnap supports IP and R&D professionals through tools for patent analytics, prior art searches, and strategic innovation mapping.

Furthermore, Matthew highlights Patsnap's AI-driven capabilities, including semantic search and patent drafting support, while emphasizing its adherence to strict data security and ISO standards.
