Behind the Curtain with Two Former Defense Lawyers | John Merrick and Les Brock (Personal Injury Lawyers)

"The middle of a trial is the only place I've ever been where the thought came over me, 'This is where you belong. Right here. In this chaos.' Having some control over a situation that most people feel is totally out of control. You're in the eye of the storm, and it's calm there." -John MerrickPersonal Injury Lawyers John Merrick and Les Brock spent a combined 25 years defending insurance companies and other large corporations, before moving to defend individuals and their families in personal injury and wrongful death cases, as well as businesses in payment claims, fraud and other business torts.We talk today about that journey, taking the big step nearly 7 years ago to go out on their own, the lifestyle implications, business acumen required and complete mindset shifts involved.John and Les share what they've learned about valuation, taking cases to trial, working with claims adjusters and the contrasts between big firms and a small, nimble firm like their own.It was a pleasure having John and Les join us.Courtroom Stories & Tactics | RVA Trial Lawyers Available on Spotify, Apple, YouTube, and at RVATrialLawyers.com Based out of Richmond, Virginia, Courtroom Stories & Tactics by RVA Trial Lawyers exists for lawyers who try cases to juries on behalf of people.
