In this Fourth of July episode, Lauren and Lacey take a closer look at what it really means to have personal freedom, especially when legal, medical, and ethical questions collide.

They discuss a recent case in Georgia involving a woman who was declared brain dead but kept on life support to carry her pregnancy to term. They also discuss tough topics like healthcare decisions, abortion laws, and the rights outlined in the Constitution.

From their legal perspectives as an estate planning and a criminal defense attorney, they explore:

How healthcare power of attorney documents work, and why they matter

The challenges doctors face when laws restrict medical judgment

The emotional and financial toll on families caught in these situations

Why black-and-white laws often don’t fit real-life cases

How women can take steps now to document their wishes clearly

Lauren and Lacey share their own views on life, family, faith, and the importance of letting people make the decisions that are right for them. Be safe this holiday weekend, don’t drink and drive, and if you ever need legal help, you know who to call.

In this episode of The Lawmas Podcast, Lauren and Lacey close out their reality TV legal series with a breakdown of Mormon Wives, but not before tackling a timely topic: AI in the legal world. From estate planning to criminal defense, they explain why tools like ChatGPT can’t replace a real lawyer and how relying on AI could land you in legal trouble.

They then turn their focus to Mormon Wives and the complicated issues around underage marriage, statutory rape laws, and cultural pressure. They dive into age of consent laws, “Romeo and Juliet” exceptions, and why pushing girls into marriage so young is legally and ethically problematic.

The Lawmas also highlight celebrity double standards, like Kylie Jenner and Elvis, where teen-adult relationships get a pass. Finally, they wrap with a quick legal take on cease-and-desist letters and defamation in reality TV drama.

In this episode of The Lawmas Podcast, Lauren and Lacey continue talking through legal issues of reality TV, this time digging into the world of Sister Wives. From the complexities of property ownership and inheritance to health care decisions and estate planning, the hosts unpack what happens when legal systems don’t account for polygamous family structures. Using Coyote Pass as a case study, they explain how lack of legal marriage impacts real estate rights, medical decision-making, child custody, taxes, and more.

While recognizing the personal freedom of spiritual marriages, they emphasize the importance of legal planning, like health care proxies, wills, and contracts, to protect everyone involved. The conversation also touches on public policy concerns and why legalizing plural marriage remains unlikely. Looking ahead, Lauren and Lacey tease an upcoming episode on fertility law and reproductive rights, highlighting how modern family structures continue to challenge outdated legal norms.
