When tragedy strikes and you're injured in an accident, the attorney you choose can dramatically impact your compensation and future. Senior Trial Attorney Shawn Alfano, with 25 years of courtroom experience, reveals a critical insight many accident victims overlook: most personal injury lawyers never actually try cases in court.
Drawing on his extensive experience across numerous New York counties, Alfano compares trial attorneys to surgeons - specialized professionals with skills that general practitioners don't possess. This distinction matters enormously when facing insurance companies that meticulously track which law firms consistently go to trial versus those that always settle. The revelation that insurance companies send representatives to observe trials and adjust their offers accordingly demonstrates why having a proven trial attorney transforms your case's value from the moment it begins.
The podcast delves into the complex process of building a successful case, from preserving critical evidence before it disappears to managing the substantial expenses of litigation through a contingency fee arrangement. Alfano shares powerful insights about negotiation leverage, explaining how his ability to reference his own successful verdicts fundamentally changes conversations with insurance adjusters. Beyond the technical aspects, he speaks movingly about what motivates him - helping families rebuild after life-altering accidents when no amount of money can truly make them whole. If you're dealing with a serious injury case, this episode provides essential guidance on finding representation that will fight relentlessly for the full justice you deserve rather than settling for convenience.
