Season 5 Episode 30
A high-profile lawyer doesn’t always mean high-quality results. In this final episode of our Divorce Attorney Styles series, Corey Shapiro explains what a “Top Dog” attorney really brings to the table, why reputation can be misleading, and how to protect your case — and your budget — from intimidation theater. Whether you’re facing off with a name-brand firm or just feeling outgunned, this episode will help you stay strategic.
What You'll Learn:
Why some clients hire big-name attorneys they can't afford, and what happens next
The difference between legal skill and legal theater
When a Top Dog might actually be the right move
How to spot whether you’re paying for reputation or results
What to ask your own attorney if the other side brings in a heavy-hitter
Power Line:
Don’t confuse a big name with a big threat.
Core Takeaway:
You don’t win by matching swagger. You win by staying smart. Understand who you’re really dealing with, what matters in your case, and how to choose the legal strategy that works for your life, not your fear.
Next Step:
Ask your attorney:
“Have you worked with this opposing counsel before?”
“How do you plan to respond to their strategy?”
“What are we doing to keep the case efficient and focused?”
Closing Thought:
You don’t need to be the loudest voice in the room. You just need to know what you’re building and how to protect it.
You’ve got this.
And if you don’t believe it yet, Corey believes it for you.
