Alex Walsh on Lessons from Both Sides of the Courtroom

In this episode of Raising the Bar with RebuttalPR, host Ray DeLorenzi sits down with Alexandra Walsh, a powerhouse trial attorney who has tried and won cases nationwide. Alex’s career began with clerkships for Judge Merrick Garland and Justice Stephen Breyer, followed by two decades in Big Law defending major corporations in product liability and white-collar cases. After co-founding a successful defense firm, she made the bold decision to cross the aisle, launching Walsh Law in 2021 and ultimately bringing her team to Anapol Weiss.Alex opens up about what it was like to clerk at the U.S. Supreme Court, how she built her courtroom skills by saying “yes” to tough trials, and the moment she realized she needed to move to the plaintiff’s bar. She shares lessons from leading a 3M earplug bellwether trial, the challenges of starting her own firm, and why joining forces with Anapol Weiss felt like the right next step. Alex also reflects on misconceptions between defense and plaintiff lawyers, and why she believes trial work is one of the most meaningful ways to create change for clients and communities.Learn more about Alex Walsh and Anapol Weiss: https://www.anapolweiss.com/attorneys/
