Back to Episodes8 | Making It as a Trial Lawyer with Michael Cowen
Description
Michael Cowen is one of the most successful and prolific personal injury attorneys around. He’s tried more than 120 jury trials alone, and has made a career holding big companies accountable for how their products and practices endanger the safety of the average person. He also never planned to be a plaintiffs’ attorney. In fact, Michael’s first job out of law school was at one of the oldest corporate defense firms in the country. On today’s episode, Michael shares why he made the journey across the aisle, the challenges he faced starting his firm, Cowen Law, and feeling the pressure to win every case. He also gets candid about the topic that's on every law student’s mind: money.
Plus, Michael’s so generous, he’s even sharing his email address with our listeners: Michael.Cowen@cowenlaw.com
