The Right Stuff Series: To Have or Not to Have an Aggressive Litigator

Courtroom Confidential’s “The Right Stuff Series” is a 5-part
series dedicated to helping you to find the lawyer with the right
stuff for your case by examining 5 of the most important
characteristics of a great lawyer! Co-hosted by Daniel Crespo and
Michael D’Andrea, litigation partners at the premier law firm
Bremer Whyte Brown & O’Meara, in this episode you learn the
pros and cons of hiring an overly aggressive litigator. This series
is sponsored by Pete Fowler Construction.

Daniel and Michael are the hiring partners in the Los Angeles
office and the qualities that they recommend clients look for when
researching lawyers are the same skills they look for when
interviewing new applicants. Through their cautionary tales you
will learn why an in-your-face, aggressive attorney is not always
the most effective litigator. There is a time and place to be
demanding and assertive, and a shrewd litigator will know when and
where that is and will do it with a specific strategy in mind to
win the client’s case.
