David deRubertis – How I Stopped Hating Jury Selection

David deRubertis, one of California's preeminent employment trial lawyers, once had a streak of consecutive trials resulting in eight-figure verdicts. And yet he hates jury selection. How did he move past that? By embracing what comes naturally to him and how his mind works. In this conversation with hosts Harry Plotkin and Dan Kramer, David describes how he’s leveraged that lesson to persuade jurors to shift their focus in an employment case – where anger, not necessarily emotional distress, often drives the verdict. He also reveals why one winning strategy may be to not pin the case on the individual client but rather on a corporate defendant’s systemic wrongdoing. A great example: His $464.5 million verdict against Southern California Edison in a workplace harassment case, the largest contested employment verdict ever.Learn More and Connect☑️ David deRubertis | LinkedIn☑️ The deRubertis Law Firm☑️ Harry Plotkin | LinkedIn | Facebook | Instagram☑️ Dan Kramer | LinkedIn☑️ Kramer Trial Lawyers on LinkedIn | Facebook | YouTube | Instagram☑️ Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTubeProduced and Powered by LawPodsEpisode sponsored by Focus Graphics.
