Winning through engagement as one's true self- Patrick McLain

Send us Fan MailWinning through engagement as one's true self- Dallas attorney Patrick McLain  joins fellow Trial Lawyers College alum and Fairfax criminal lawyer Jon Katz in discussing revealing our true selves -- warts and all -- to jurors and judges, so that they will also be true to themselves and each other and to their oaths. Jon Katz met Patrick -- a Trial Lawyers College faculty member -- through the monthly trial preparation gatherings hosted by fellow Trial Lawyers College alum and faculty member Christopher Flohr .  Patrick is a Marine veteran who was a military lawyer and judge, now for many years in private practice for military defense and criminal defense. Patrick discusses applying storytelling and psychodrama approaches to obtaining justice for criminal defendants, and the power of lawyers joining together in pursuing that path. In this talk, Patrick includes discussing the bonds among military members from the rough times they experience, and the bonds among Trial Lawyers College attendees, with our own challenges that we handle in pursuing justice for our clients. This journey can lay bare our raw feelings and emotions, which is often the only way for us to best help our clients. This Beat the Prosecution podcast episode is also available on YouTube, and Apple Podcasts. This podcast with Fairfax, Virginia criminal / DUI lawyer Jon Katz is playable on all devices at podcast.BeatTheProsecution.com.
