In this episode…
In a world where legal battles can stretch on for years, and the stakes are life-changing, how does one ensure that justice is not only sought but achieved? What does it take to advocate effectively for those who have suffered catastrophic injuries?
According to Michael Warshauer, a seasoned trial lawyer with a focus on catastrophic injury and wrongful death, successful advocacy in these high-stakes cases requires a deep commitment to ethical practice and a client-centered approach. He highlights the importance of being prepared to go to trial, even if a settlement is more likely, as it positions a case more favorably from the outset. This readiness, Michael explains, compels opposing parties to offer fair settlements, thereby upholding the rights of the injured and setting precedents that benefit society at large.
In this episode of 15 Minutes, host Bela Musits talks with Michael Warshauer, Senior Partner at Warshauer Woodward Atkins, about the intricacies of high-stakes litigation. They discuss the critical role of ethics in legal practice, the strategic importance of trial preparedness, and the societal impact of thoughtful litigation. Michael also offers advice to clients and aspiring lawyers on ensuring effective legal representation and maintaining ethical integrity in their practices.
