Michael Alder - Don’t Fear Obstacles in Your Case. They’re a Gift

When Michael Alder’s client goes to trial, she will face what Michael believes is the number one type of discrimination today: weight. She’s 5-foot-1, weighs about 235 pounds, and cannot have surgery to relieve pain from injuries suffered in a car accident until she loses weight.

In this dispute over liability, Michael will leverage the skills and strategies he’s developed as a top personal injury lawyer in California. With host Dan Ambrose, Michael describes how this challenging case demonstrates his trial strategies: attacking sensitive issues head-on, being honest, and turning a bad situation into a good one. Tune in to learn more about his philosophy, and be ready for a few bad jokes. After all, finding success in the courtroom is like telling a lot of bad jokes. If you keep telling the jokes – taking on the hard cases and pushing through the failures – at some point, you’ll hit the mark.
