The Ambulance Chasers? | EP2 | Beyond the Verdict

In this episode of the Ambulance Chasers podcast, lawyers Paul Miller and Renee Vinette continue to share memorable experiences from their legal careers. Renee recounts a particularly nerve-wracking moment as an expert witness in a small town in Tennessee. Despite battling a migraine and extreme nervousness, she managed to connect with the jury through her honesty and vulnerability. Paul shares a significant learning experience from his time working in legal aid in the United States, where he encountered a defendant who preferred a jail sentence to avoid homelessness during winter.
The conversation then shifts to discussing memorable clients. Renee recalls a heartbreaking case involving a 14-year-old boy who became quadriplegic after a pool accident at a teenage party. Paul shares two emotionally challenging cases: one involving a sexually abused foster child, and another about a Halloween prank gone wrong, resulting in a tragic accident. Both lawyers emphasize how these cases deeply affected them personally and professionally, highlighting the emotional toll that certain legal matters can have on attorneys.
