In this episode, host Andrew Samalin sits down with Dan Purtell, founding partner and lead trial attorney at McEldrew Purtell in Philadelphia. Dan shares a powerful story from early in his career—representing the mother of a close friend in a slip-and-fall case that seemed almost impossible to win. From a missing weather report to a cleaned-up accident scene, the odds were stacked against them. But through relentless investigation—including laser scans of the parking lot and tracking down hyper-local weather data—Dan and his team proved the truth and won justice.

It’s a revealing look at what it takes to be a great trial attorney: trust, grit, and belief in the people you serve.
