35:45

Larry Stewart became a personal injury lawyer in Miami in the early 1960’s. It was a time when the longevity of the then-fledgling profession was in doubt. He took “show & tell” presentations before a jury to a whole new level, in one of the first automobile crashworthiness cases in the country. But he’s perhaps best known as the founder of Trial L…

All Sean Domnick ever wanted to be while growing up was a lawyer. Today, he represents some of the most catastrophically injured people in the country – many from medical malpractice – and has won among the largest verdicts.

Rich Newsome of Orlando has been at the center of some of the biggest personal injury cases involving automobiles in this century.

Titans of Trial – Phil Freidin 43:01

4y ago43:01

43:01

When Phil Freidin opened his own practice in Miami at the age of 29, he quickly became a legal trend-setter. His success in a product liability case in the mid-1970’s and a bad faith case a decade later, both established significant case law. He’s also credited with starting many legal careers in the specialty practice fields that resulted. More th…

Titans of Trial - Don Hinkle 29:15

4+ y ago29:15

29:15

It was a chance encounter with trial lawyers Fred Levin and Chris Searcy when he was just a few years out of law school that taught Don Hinkle a big lesson: To be a successful trial lawyer, you just have to be yourself. It’s that and good old-fashioned hard work that he credits for much of his success. He focuses on catastrophic personal injury cas…

Titans of Trial – Jeffrey Liggio 36:55

4+ y ago36:55

36:55

Jeff Liggio approaches law practice as a human being first, rather than acting like a lawyer. It’s advice he passes along to younger lawyers and is one of his keys to trial success. As you’ll learn, he brings “honor” to an honorable profession. For the first 17 years he was a lawyer, Jeff Liggio was also a military pilot. Given his military backgro…

Titans of Trial – Keith Mitnik 42:51

4+ y ago42:51

42:51

His parents were school teachers, so it’s no surprise that part of Keith Mitnik’s practice at Morgan & Morgan in Orlando is to counsel other lawyers. He has a reputation as the “go-to guy” who helps turn seeming problems into solutions. He’s going to share some of those lessons with us today, so grab a pen and pad of paper. He prides himself as an …

Titans of Trial – Ted Leopold 38:53

4+ y ago38:53

38:53

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…

Titans of Trial – Michael Haggard 39:01

4+ y ago39:01

39:01

Having a father who was a well-known and successful trial lawyer didn’t mean that Mike Haggard was on easy street. His interest in practicing law first came from his dad Andy, but Mike had to work hard. He had no success in repeated testimony before the federal Consumer Product Safety Commission on swimming pool safety. But he didn’t give up. He fo…

Originally a defense lawyer, Tom Edwards of Jacksonville changed sides to help this needy and helpless population. Along the way, he’s built a niche personal injury practice, with many victories. He’s also …

Titans of Trial – Greg Barnhart 42:06

5y ago42:06

42:06

Greg Barnhart refers to trials as “the ultimate game.” While certainly a competition between two sides, he insists that juries expect to be entertained. To be a successful trial lawyer, as you’ll hear, you have to be entertaining and tell a story. He’s won more than $90 million to date in verdicts and settlements for his clients, including at one p…

Titans of Trial – Steve Pajcic 35:21

5y ago35:21

35:21

On today’s program, something different. We feature someone who is as well known for his political life as his distinguished trial career.

As a l…

Titans of Trial – Dale Swope 43:49

5y ago43:49

43:49

Dale Swope jokes that he’ll pay a thousand dollars to anyone that can prove they’ve been more broke than he’s been. He had to take losing cases no one else would touch and find a way to win them. He did, including his first personal injury case, a case that he never dreamt he would face. Along the way, he not only made a living, but has built a vib…

Titans of Trial - Neal Roth 41:18

5y ago41:18

41:18

He really wanted to be a doctor. But a bad automobile accident in his teens that almost killed him – twice – landed Neal Roth in a courtroom as a plaintiff in a personal injury lawsuit. It was that early legal experience that convinced him to marry his desire for medicine with law, and pursue a career as a medical malpractice trial lawyer. He has l…

41:19

His first boss and mentor was Al J. Cone, the founder of the Academy of Florida Trial Lawyers, the predecessor of the Florida Justice Association. As such, our conversation with John Romano of Lake Worth is as much the story and lessons of the legendary Al Cone as it is of John’s career. He learned well, as you’ll hear. John Romano is a Past Presid…

Titans of Trial - Stuart Grossman 39:32

5+ y ago39:32

39:32

As a young man growing up in Coral Gables, Stuart Grossman was upset at the social injustices shown on television news every night and wanted to change that if he could. He could and did. His victories include the largest verdict of its time for the death of a child and a more than one billion dollar settlement in a bank overdraft class action. His…

Titans of Trial - James "Booty" Nance 40:56

5+ y ago40:56

40:56

It was his older sister’s mispronunciation of the word “beauty” that, as just an infant, gave James Nance the nickname that would stick with him for life: “Booty”. With a name like that, he had to be a good trial lawyer – and he was – and still is today as he goes into the office at nearly 88 years old. Booty Nance, of Melbourne, was one of the nin…

Titans of Trial - W.C. Gentry 33:23

5+ y ago33:23

33:23

His mother was a smoker who died of lung cancer at the age of 54. So when W.C. Gentry of Jacksonville got the call to join a team of lawyers fighting Big Tobacco to recover state Medicaid dollars spent on those smokers’ care, his was an easy answer.

33:59

Working in a sausage factory while attending college taught Troy Rafferty the value of hard work and sacrifice. Which helped him become what he is today: one of the top trial lawyers nationally who police the pharmaceutical industry by trying and winning complex mass tort cases. But as the old adage goes about sausages and laws – that you should ne…

Titans of Trial - Bruce Kaster 37:34

6y ago37:34

37:34

He describes himself as a trial lawyer, cowboy, hog hunter, and red fisherman. And not always in that order. But then Bruce Kaster is not your typical trial lawyer. His niche practice of suing tire manufacturers over tread defects is an esoteric and technical field of law. He’s folksy and full of funny stories, as you’ll soon hear – but dead seriou…

Titans of Trial - Mike Eidson 35:11

Imagine working on a big case with your team and then leaving town – without them – to try to settle the case before the trial starts. Well that’s the situation that Mike Maher of Orlando found himself in back in 1997. As Chairman of the so-called “Group of Nine” Dream Team of Florida trial lawyers, Mike negotiated the $13 plus billion settlement f…

If you’re a lawyer and not particularly happy about being one, Bill says you’re not a…

At $13 billion, it was the largest civil judgment at the time in the nation. …

Titans of Trial - Steve Yerrid 35:11

6+ y ago35:11

35:11

Barely in his 40’s at the time, Steve Yerrid was the youngest member of the so-called “Dream Team” of Florida lawyers who took on Big Tobacco in the mid-1990’s - and won.

Every trial lawyer in Florida – and their clients – owe a debt of gratitude to Sammy Cacciatore of Melbourne. It was back in the early 1970’s, fresh out of law school, that he made his most successful argument before the Florida Supreme Court: that damage awards should not be disallowed simply because the victim bore some fault; but rather, awarded…
