Kansas Wants to Stop Anchoring - Will Your State Do the Same? With Tom Dickerson

Reframe, Refocus, Win: A $2M Verdict Story with Toni Schlapprizzi

Antoinette (Toni) Schlapprizzi [https://schlawyer.com/our-team/toni-schlapprizzi/] turned to data for guidance on a complex trucking injury case. Her client was seriously injured when he was unstrapping a load of heavy pipe and the telehandler operator began lifting before her client was clear of the fall zone. Toni wrote in substantial context about the case, right down to her client’s trip from Louisiana to Illinois, where the accident occured. The first data report put the winnable rate in the 60s. But when she reframed the case to focus on the job site – as the data suggested – the win rate jumped to 89%. In this episode, she sits down with the Fred team, hosts Alicia Campbell [https://www.linkedin.com/in/alicia-campbell-92438417] and Nick Schweitzer, to unpack how listening to the data led her to a $2.125 million verdict.

Big Data and Its Little Brother: Separated at Birth, Powerful Together, with Monte Tynes and Courtney Wilson

Monte Tynes [https://www.tyneslawfirm.com/douglas-l-monte-tynes-jr/] and Courtney Wilson [https://www.tyneslawfirm.com/courtney-parker-wilson/] have fallen in love with “big data” and big data’s “little brother,” called Fred. Why? Because big data reveals the things that shouldn’t worry you and the things you should. Fred, on the other hand, guides you when “you don’t know everything” and when you can’t absorb the expense of a big data study. In this visit with Fred’s creators, Alicia Campbell [https://www.linkedin.com/in/alicia-campbell-92438417] and Nick Schweitzer [https://www.linkedin.com/in/nick-schweitzer-54180ab9/], the partners at Tynes Law Firm [https://www.tyneslawfirm.com/] describe how they use both platforms in their Mississippi practice. Tune in as they break down the critical timing to get the most out of both: starting with Fred, and then moving to Big Data.

Kansas Wants to Stop Anchoring - Will Your State Do the Same? With Tom Dickerson

"I think this is coming to a place near you," warns Tom Dickerson, trial attorney leading the fight against sweeping tort reform in Kansas. A bill would prohibit plaintiff lawyers from requesting any dollar amount for non-economic damages. With hosts Alicia Campbell [https://www.linkedin.com/in/alicia-campbell-92438417] and Nick Schweitzer [https://www.linkedin.com/in/nick-schweitzer-54180ab9/], Tom describes his effort to fight it. And Nick describes his research that counters the argument of the bill’s supporters: “Anchoring isn't really a big deal, and it doesn't really happen, and jurors aren't just blindly doing this – but when you take it away, you have worse outcomes.” Because anti-anchoring could come “to a place near you,” Tom urges all lawyers to be ready to fight. “First and foremost, everybody needs to get involved in their trial lawyers organization.” CONNECT WITH FRED ☑️ Tom Dickerson [https://www.dickersonoxton.com/about-us/our-attorneys/tom-dickerson/] | LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomas-dickerson-6b0b3840] ☑️ Dickerson Oxton [https://www.dickersonoxton.com/] | LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/company/dickerson-oxton-law-firm/] | Facebook [https://www.facebook.com/people/Dickerson-Oxton-LLC/100063511542248/] | YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5AIlL2gTRWtP31bR4a9u5A] ☑️ Alicia Campbell [https://www.linkedin.com/in/alicia-campbell-92438417] ☑️ Nick Schweitzer [https://www.linkedin.com/in/nick-schweitzer-54180ab9/] ☑️ Focus with Fred [https://www.focuswithfred.com/] ☑️ Subscribe: Apple Podcasts [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-fred-files/id1809775498] | Spotify [https://open.spotify.com/show/1W68zVWdx5yCoyqX21IowQ] | YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/@focuswithfred] Produced and Powered by LawPods [https://lawpods.com/]
