Trial Lawyer. Tweets (and typos) mine/ not legal advice! Certified to operate a forklift, but pretty terrible at it.

Very quickly, only regulation left to hold corporations accountable is lawsuits. Don’t let anyone convince you we need tort reform- it’s just more efforts by corporations to be able to act and injure with impunity.

It's so cool how everything from prescription drugs to McDonald's to frozen waffles is contaminated now. It's almost like government regulations were the only thing keeping manufacturers from cutting costs and poisoning us.

CEO Elon Musk said on Twitter a year ago that he was looking for “hardcore streetfighters” to fight and file lawsuits. https://t.co/J2Y9h8cEgl

Good law school exam hypothetical.

My work for injured people will continue, just under a new letterhead. I'll be working at Grant and Eisenhofer, still fighting the good fight. Thanks to all who follow me :)

Some personal news to those of you who know me: today is my last day at SMB. After six and a half years, I'm moving on. I am forever grateful for my time here. I wouldn't be the lawyer I am without working around these great attorneys. It's a bittersweet day.

Thank you @propublica for talking about this very important safety issue. Underride protection is simple but critical. It prevents severe/fatal injuries in what should be otherwise minor collisions.

[ProPublica @propublica]

Drawing on thousands of court records, govt. documents & interviews with survivors and industry insiders, the @frontlinepbs & ProPublica investigation will show why regulators and the trucking industry have long refused to mandate these safety devices. https://t.co/zwaBFi0lNx

A great thread.

In IJ’s unconstitutional traffic stop case in Texas, the officer said he wanted to search our client’s truck as he was acting suspicious.

But our client was calm and forthright throughout the entire interaction! So, what will an officer label “suspicious”?

A shocking amount:

@pulvinator Just did my fourth briefing/argument on this issue in our cases. 🙃

@pulvinator Me watching this link load: “please don’t be Philadelphia, please don’t be Philadelphia, please don’t be Philadelphia, damn it .”

[Deeva Shah @happygolawky]

Stages of brief writing I have gone through today:

- I have no idea what I'm talking about.
- Wow, I really conceptually understand this.
- Now that I understand this, our argument is definitely wrong.
- Our argument is so right, we will definitely win.

@JessicaHuseman If you think they're going to refuse to sign for your certified, I like to send one regular and one certified. If the regular doesn't get returned to sender, you know they're there, just dodging ya.

The Alliance for Consumers is an anti-tort group. It's a dark money PAC funded by billionaires to keep injured people from being able to sue them to protect their profits. Don't believe their smear campaign against trial lawyers fighting to keep courts open.

[Alliance For Consumers @for_consumers]

The “Shady Eight” are stark examples of the Shady Trial Lawyer Pipeline at work, with politicians feeding sweetheart contracts to trial lawyers who give 99% of their political donations to left-leaning candidates, committees, & orgs.
