Reframe, Refocus, Win: A $2M Verdict Story with Toni Schlapprizzi

<a href="https://schlawyer.com/our-team/toni-schlapprizzi/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Antoinette (Toni) Schlapprizzi</a> turned to data for guidance on a complex trucking injury case. Her client was seriously injured when he was unstrapping a load of heavy pipe and the telehandler operator began lifting before her client was clear of the fall zone. Toni wrote in substantial context about the case, right down to her client’s trip from Louisiana to Illinois, where the accident occured. The first data report put the winnable rate in the 60s. But when she reframed the case to focus on the job site – as the data suggested – the win rate jumped to 89%. In this episode, she sits down with the Fred team, hosts <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/alicia-campbell-92438417" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Alicia Campbell</a> and Nick Schweitzer, to unpack how listening to the data led her to a $2.125 million verdict.<h2>Connect with Fred</h2>☑️ <a href="https://schlawyer.com/our-team/toni-schlapprizzi/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Antoinette (Toni) Schlapprizzi</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/toni-schlapprizzi-1621b532/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LinkedIn</a>☑️ <a href="https://schlawyer.com/our-firm/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Schlapprizzi Attorneys at Law</a> | <a href="https://www.instagram.com/schlapprizzitriallawyers" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Schlapprizzi-Attorneys-at-Law/254666114659566" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook</a> | <a href="https://twitter.com/SchlapprizziLaw" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">X</a>☑️ <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/alicia-campbell-92438417" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Alicia Campbell</a>☑️ <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/nick-schweitzer-54180ab9/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Nick Schweitzer</a>☑️ <a href="https://www.focuswithfred.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Focus with Fred</a>☑️ Subscribe: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-fred-files/id1809775498" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Apple Podcasts</a> | <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/1W68zVWdx5yCoyqX21IowQ" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Spotify</a> | <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@focuswithfred" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">YouTube</a>Produced and Powered by <a href="https://lawpods.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LawPods</a>

Big Data and Its Little Brother: Separated at Birth, Powerful Together, with Monte Tynes and Courtney Wilson

<a href="https://www.tyneslawfirm.com/douglas-l-monte-tynes-jr/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Monte Tynes</a> and <a href="https://www.tyneslawfirm.com/courtney-parker-wilson/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Courtney Wilson</a> have fallen in love with “big data” and big data’s “little brother,” called Fred. Why? Because big data reveals the things that shouldn’t worry you and the things you should. Fred, on the other hand, guides you when “you don’t know everything” and when you can’t absorb the expense of a big data study. In this visit with Fred’s creators, <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/alicia-campbell-92438417" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Alicia Campbell</a> and <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/nick-schweitzer-54180ab9/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Nick Schweitzer</a>, the partners at <a href="https://www.tyneslawfirm.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Tynes Law Firm</a> describe how they use both platforms in their Mississippi practice. Tune in as they break down the critical timing to get the most out of both: starting with Fred, and then moving to Big Data.<h2>Connect with Fred</h2>☑️ <a href="https://www.tyneslawfirm.com/douglas-l-monte-tynes-jr/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Douglas "Monte" Tynes, Jr.</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/monte-tynes-a328713a4" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LinkedIn</a>☑️ <a href="https://www.tyneslawfirm.com/courtney-parker-wilson/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Courtney Wilson</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/courtney-wilson-5b98b6178" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LinkedIn</a>☑️ <a href="https://www.tyneslawfirm.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Tynes Law Firm</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100069101229616" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/tynes-law-firm-pa" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LinkedIn</a>☑️ <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/alicia-campbell-92438417" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Alicia Campbell</a>☑️ <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/nick-schweitzer-54180ab9/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Nick Schweitzer</a>☑️ <a href="https://www.focuswithfred.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Focus with Fred</a>☑️ Subscribe: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-fred-files/id1809775498" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Apple Podcasts</a> | <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/1W68zVWdx5yCoyqX21IowQ" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Spotify</a> | <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@focuswithfred" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">YouTube</a>Produced and Powered by <a href="https://lawpods.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LawPods</a>

Kansas Wants to Stop Anchoring - Will Your State Do the Same? With Tom Dickerson

"I think this is coming to a place near you," warns Tom Dickerson, trial attorney leading the fight against sweeping tort reform in Kansas. A bill would prohibit plaintiff lawyers from requesting any dollar amount for non-economic damages. With hosts <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/alicia-campbell-92438417" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Alicia Campbell</a> and <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/nick-schweitzer-54180ab9/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Nick Schweitzer</a>, Tom describes his effort to fight it. And Nick describes his research that counters the argument of the bill’s supporters: “Anchoring isn't really a big deal, and it doesn't really happen, and jurors aren't just blindly doing this – but when you take it away, you have worse outcomes.” Because anti-anchoring could come “to a place near you,” Tom urges all lawyers to be ready to fight. “First and foremost, everybody needs to get involved in their trial lawyers organization.”<h2>Connect with Fred</h2>☑️ <a href="https://www.dickersonoxton.com/about-us/our-attorneys/tom-dickerson/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Tom Dickerson</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomas-dickerson-6b0b3840" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LinkedIn</a>☑️ <a href="https://www.dickersonoxton.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Dickerson Oxton</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/dickerson-oxton-law-firm/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LinkedIn</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/people/Dickerson-Oxton-LLC/100063511542248/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook</a> | <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5AIlL2gTRWtP31bR4a9u5A" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">YouTube</a>☑️ <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/alicia-campbell-92438417" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Alicia Campbell</a>☑️ <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/nick-schweitzer-54180ab9/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Nick Schweitzer</a>☑️ <a href="https://www.focuswithfred.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Focus with Fred</a>☑️ Subscribe: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-fred-files/id1809775498" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Apple Podcasts</a> | <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/1W68zVWdx5yCoyqX21IowQ" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Spotify</a> | <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@focuswithfred" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">YouTube</a>Produced and Powered by <a href="https://lawpods.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LawPods</a>
