Attorney Meesha Moulton takes us on her remarkable journey from Toronto to Las Vegas, where she built a thriving immigration and personal injury law practice from humble beginnings. With only $3,000 in her pocket after law school, Misha stayed at a budget motel on Boulder Highway while studying for the Nevada bar exam – a far cry from the successful law firm she would eventually establish.
The conversation delves deep into the current immigration landscape, with Moulton offering nuanced insights that cut through political rhetoric. She explains how recent policies have effectively criminalized undocumented status itself, creating widespread fear even among those with straightforward paths to legal residency. "These are not kidnappers and murderers," Moulton emphasizes, highlighting how media coverage often fails to capture the reality that most immigrants are simply seeking better opportunities and deserve due process.
For those navigating personal injury cases, Moulton reveals the inner workings of the legal process – from initial consultations to settlement negotiations with insurance companies. She shares practical advice like the value of dash cams as evidence (though she humorously notes they're "not great when you're at fault") and explains how her firm approaches case selection with an emphasis on client service over volume.
Beyond legal insights, Moulton offers powerful business wisdom, identifying overthinking as "one of the biggest culprits of why people don't actually pursue what they're passionate about." Her personal philosophy minimizes the time between idea and execution, focusing instead on disciplined implementation. As a woman in a traditionally male-dominated field, she acknowledges the ongoing challenges but approaches them with determination rather than discouragement.
