Titans of Trial – Ted Leopold

It was helping a friend of a friend in a practice area outside of his usual cases that led Ted Leopold to find – and win – a new kind of case, one that would change his career.  It was the first managed care case of its kind in the country and would lead to a flood of others.  Most recently, he’s expanded into a novel way to try workers’ compensation cases, outside of workers’ compensation courts. Also, the discovery that he personally took from the engineers in the Takata air bag case has been used by plaintiffs in cases across the country.  It was that same discovery that unearthed doctored documents in what’s become groundbreaking litigation. Ted Leopold sat down with Florida Justice Association Radio host Harvey Bennett in June 2020 to talk about the lessons he’s learned from law practice and life, including how he’s persevered through a childhood disability that he talks about for the first time.
