She brings that trial lawyer preparation and focus to her mediation practice meeting all types of cases. Debra also serves on the faculty for UCL Law, SF, formerly known as UC Hastings, College of the Law, teaching negotiation and settlement. As someone who's been on the other side of Deborah in litigation as well as a participant in her mediations, I can attest to her quick study capabilities in identifying the key issues in the heart of a dispute. Her meticulous preparation includes working with the parties in advance to make sure the work has been done and the right decision makers will be there. For us, her advance work has led to cases resolving for policy limits before the mediation even occurs. We discussed Debra's approach to cases before, during, and after a session and how to set the sage for success. So please sit back and enjoy this wonderful and expansive conversation with the inevitable Debra Bogaards.

Please enjoy this wonderful conversation with Nolan Armstrong, who is now a fulltime neutral with Signature Resolutions. Most folks will also identify him as a partner at McNamara, Ambacher, Wheeler, Hirsig & Gray, LLP where Nolan practiced for almost 20 years or as the current President for the Association of Defense Counsel of Northern California and Nevada.

Nolan was assigned by the carrier to attend, and it was evident why the carrier picked Nolan. I observed Nolan’s empathy, openness, and patience firsthand. It is no surprise to me that Nolan has taken that quiet confidence paired with deep listening to move into helping people navigate challenging conflicts in the mediation setting.

I’m thrilled to share this conversation with Scott Montgomery, a partner at Santa Rosa-based Abbey Weitzenberg Warren & Emery. This Part III of this conversation. If you missed Part II, make sure to stream it first: Youtube: https://youtu.be/xtpBS-s3piw Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/0u6avdVFDjObcJYc3vhfyE?si=wwPHl82qR_SGGvbwBYwL2w Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/coopers-code/id1679622653?i=1000698570746 Scott is part of the exciting shift in trial work. For decades the big deal trial lawyers were primarily pre-Discovery Act or former criminal practitioners. We’re now seeing a wave of younger civil trial lawyers storming the courtroom doors, refusing offers that undercompensate their clients. Scott’s results read like the introductory speech for a Lifetime Achievement award winner, yet at 39 years old he’s got decades ahead to continue laying defendants low. Over the last two years he’s won a $46 million and a $24.8 million jury verdict for child sex abuse victims. He has already won a CLAY award for the social significance of his results. He’s done this while being a father of a two-year-old with another on the way, and we talk about the tension between parenting and a prodigious practice. So please sit back and enjoy this wide-ranging and inspiring conversation with Scott Montgomery.

I’m thrilled to share this conversation with Mary Alexander! This Part I of this conversation; tune in next week for Part II. Initially a scientist, Mary confronted personal tragedy in her life by moving from public health and the lab to law school and the courtroom, recognizing the value in the court’s enforcement mechanisms. Now, Mary is widely recognized as one of the country’s top personal injury lawyers. One example? Mary’s decades-long work litigating against lead paint manufacturers led to a settlement over $1 billion and helped changed the industry. She’s been inducted into the California State Bar’s Trial Lawyer Hall of Fame and served as president for the American Association of Justice and the Consumer Attorneys of California. So sit back and enjoy as we delve into Mary’s path, the challenges she’s faced, the successes she’s had, and the wisdom she’s learned along the way.

I’m very excited to share this conversation with Larry Kern, founder of Kern, Segal & Murray. This Part III of this conversation. If you missed Part II, make sure to stream it first: Youtube: https://youtu.be/jGOxOwVeXio?si=zWaBz3nMbPoip8Qm Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/4EWZjO3pjluESlaWSjBnsn?si=N2onVpxlTUaMjUH3HOOpBA Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/poker-faces-and-jury-minds-the-art-of-reading-people/id1679622653?i=1000685717653 With over 50 years in active trial practice, Larry is a living legend, and with his wealth of knowledge Larry currently provides trial consulting services to others. He was one of the youngest members admitted to the American Board of Trial Advocates, to which he was elected in 1981. While his career has taken him many places I will always think of Larry as THE taxicab lawyer, before rideshare companies gutted the taxi industry. His life has taken him from being the legendary Melvin Belli’s runner to trying a case against Belli 20 years later, with bet-the-company taxi industry cases and visits to the World Series of Poker tables to round things out. So please sit back and enjoy this conversation with the sui generis, never predictable, but always entertaining Larry Kern.

As one of only four lawyers serving on the California Judicial Council, she guides our court system’s present and future operations. She does this while maintaining a full practice as a partner with Nelson & Fraenkel, where she focuses on complex class actions, business torts, and cruise ship and maritime matters. Each area in which she focuses is tailored to her style – complicated high line work that requires tremendous focus. Given her history, including representing family members from the 1986 Cerritos Air Disaster where 82 people were killed when a Piper Cherokee collided with an Aeroméxico flight over Los Angeles, it is no surprise that she has a passion for social justice. This passion was nurtured by her father, a former US Navy test pilot who earned his law degree at night school and went on to make his own social justice impact.

Today’s conversation with marketing creative consultant Zach Morvant is a wonderful primer on the marketing details lawyers and law firm professionals should think about but often, in the press of casework, don’t.

In the brevity and brilliance department he’s the best wordsmith I’ve come across with his ability to pack punchy messaging into very few words. With Zach’s help we’ll dive into how to best work with marketing and creative types to help build successful messaging and branding, while learning a little about growing up in Alaska along the way. Zach approaches his creative work with the same discipline and determination that applies to his other passion, cycling. There his mastery in diverse styles including fixed gear, road, gravel, ultradistance, and randonneuring has placed him on countless podiums, most recently in first place at the 200-mile Fireweed Road Race in Alaska, where he spent a good portion of his childhood. You can follow Zach’s adventures on Instagram @zmorvant.

Gary has tried over 180 jury trials and has received every accolade, award, and acknowledgement during his 61 – yes 61 – years in practice. While Gary’s accomplishments are legion, there’s one that impacts everyone. In 1988 Gary served as the California Trial Lawyers’ Association president. He led the successful fight against Proposition 106, an attempt by the insurance companies and big corporate interests to cap contingent attorneys’ fees and bar access to justice for those who cannot afford to hire high hourly rate lawyers. Gary is a whole person lawyer, and as anyone who has read his autobiography knows he lives out loud. He’s been a gang member and a fraternity brother with Kris Kristofferson. He barely graduated high school yet went on to graduate from Berkeley Law. He comes from Mormon stock and is an alcoholic. He pours everything into his cases and has taken the time to step back and do deep dives into his spirituality and being. So please sit back and enjoy as we talk cases, initiative battles, stress in the practice and everything in between.

We’ll talk about a recent record-setting 8-figure elder abuse verdict, a tragic story involving a catastrophically unprepared nursing home and a wildfire. Shahrad’s practice includes personal injury, police brutality, and wrongful death cases. Shahrad also has a family practice, and that’s a play on words in that he runs his office along with his spouse, who held a leadership role with a 900-lawyer law firm before running the Milanfar Law Firm. Like many modern trial lawyers, Shahrad developed initial trial skills serving the community as a district attorney before transitioning to civil work. A passion for trial work and technology has led to Shahrad teaching at the National Institute for Trial Advocacy, developing his own course on using iPads in trial, and serving as an adjunct profession at Golden Gate University Law School. So please sit back and enjoy this deep dive with the multitalented trial lawyer Shahrad Milanfar.

If you missed Part I, make sure to stream it first: Youtube: https://youtu.be/mwqVYONl71Y Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/0vywUJFBCFFPIB6EdTiQJC?si=bmXFcKJIQEGQgzhRq1CwjQ Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/overcoming-imposter-syndrome-shahrad-milanfar-on-confidence/id1679622653?i=1000672063533 Shahrad Milanfar is trial attorney and mediator who has leveraged his defense and neutral experience to catapult himself and his plaintiff-side clients into stratospheric case results. We’ll talk about a recent record-setting 8-figure elder abuse verdict, a tragic story involving a catastrophically unprepared nursing home and a wildfire. Shahrad’s practice includes personal injury, police brutality, and wrongful death cases. Shahrad also has a family practice, and that’s a play on words in that he runs his office along with his spouse, who held a leadership role with a 900-lawyer law firm before running the Milanfar Law Firm. Like many modern trial lawyers, Shahrad developed initial trial skills serving the community as a district attorney before transitioning to civil work. A passion for trial work and technology has led to Shahrad teaching at the National Institute for Trial Advocacy, developing his own course on using iPads in trial, and serving as an adjunct profession at Golden Gate University Law School.

I’m excited to share Part III of my conversation with Shaana Rahman.

She is also known for her excellence in public entity liability, to the extent that a major municipality offered her a job in an effort to avoid her laser-like litigation focus, as well as helping cyclists. That cycling help withstood media scrutiny recently when she helped a family navigate the loss of their son, an international track cycling champion, when he was struck and killed by a drunk driver. Shaana has also devoted herself to mentoring law students and new lawyers, including founding the Trial Advocacy Diversity Fellowship through the San Francisco Trial Lawyers’ Association, and helping improve the diversity pipeline for what remains an overwhelmingly white, male, and hetero plaintiffs’ bar. In between all this, she got a hobby - running an olive farm with award-winning olive oil along with a not-insignificant Tik Tok following. So please sit back and enjoy this interview with the multitalented and inspirational Shaana Rahman.

This is part III of our conversation with Phoenix Streets.

In our civil world most lawyers are lucky to see a few trials a year. Not Phoenix. Within his first two years in practice, Phoenix received an official commendation from San Francisco’s Board of Supervisors for trying more misdemeanor cases than any lawyer in the last decade. His work was featured on PBS through a documentary, Presumed Guilty. Phoenix gives us a glimpse into criminal court trial work and how one focused individual can change lives. Phoenix grew up in the small southern town of Beebe, Arkansas, where he and his family experienced racist attacks and abuse. These experiences helped fuel Phoenix's drive to become a public defender. He did not take the easy route. Phoenix served our country with four years enlisted in the Navy, then attended UC Berkeley on the G.I. Bill, and finally law school at UC Law. As you listen today, I ask you to consider something Phoenix said when we initially spoke: “When things are at their bleakest, I remember I am a descendent of slaves, and I think about what they went through.” With that framing, I ask that you sit back and enjoy this interview with Phoenix Streets.

Along the way he’s won every award available to a trial lawyer of his stature, been nominated to every significant invitation-only trial lawyer organization, and has made it a point to give back, mentoring and training the next generation of trial lawyers. Tom and colleague Bob Arns have helmed the University of San Francisco’s trial practice program for the last two decades. We also get the opportunity to discuss life challenges and their impacts. One of Tom’s sons suffered a spinal cord injury and another recently suffering a serious brain injury in a bike crash while Tom was preparing to try a serious brain injury bike crash case. Some of it is hard stuff, and yet not so dark as one might imagine. So please sit back and enjoy this broad and deep conversation with Tom. More on Thomas J.

Altair cases comprised two out of four of the finalists for Trial Lawyer of the Year trials this year. One of those was a case Kevin tried with fellow Altair partner Josh White to a stunning verdict in Santa Clara County, a place not known for handing out large verdicts. Kevin is also known for leading the prosecution and trial for one of the higher profile cases in recent Bay Area memory, when an armed individual made it into a UPS facility in San Francisco. The individual used a MAC-10 to kill three and wound two before killing himself. We explore the challenges and logistics involved in working up and trying a complex multi-plaintiff case with 222 – yes that’s 222- depositions. Outside the courtroom Kevin is a talented swimmer and cyclist. He’s leveraged his cycling skill, passion, and knowledge to advocate for fellow cyclists.

This is part II of our conversation with Krista Mitzel, entrepreneur and business-savvy employment defense lawyer, helping us understand why we need to surround ourselves with folks who are fountains instead of drains.

Krista is a sought-after Winston Wolfe (my words not hers) for a company’s stickiest people situations – ones that often others were unable to solve. She also serves as an adjunct professor at Golden Gate University Law School and is a frequent media commentator in print, television, and radio. I hope you enjoy this dynamic conversation as much I enjoyed having it!
