Singleton Schreiber Fearless Advocacy

Some may say they were born to be a trial lawyer. In my case I was born because of a trial. My dad was a public defender and was trying a capital murder case. Half way through the trial a new attractive young blonde court reporter took over the proceedings. My dad and the prosecutor made a bet on who could be the first to get a date with the new reporter. My dad won. And because of that bet you’re reading this bio. Growing up, talking about my dad’s latest murder trial was common conversation at the Case de Schreiber dinner table. It was ingrained in me early on that killing people to teach people that killing was wrong didn’t work. I also saw firsthand how the quality of the lawyer representing someone could have profound impact on the outcome of their case and by extension the outcome of their lives. When I was in first grade my mom suffered a massive brain aneurysm. She was never the same person but that didn’t keep us from continuing to have a fulfilling and loving relationship to this day. It’s not better or worse. Just different. Looking back I believe those experiences have been the North Stars guiding my career as a trial lawyer. What we do has the power to restore and to change the trajectory of someone’s life. But I think the greatest gift we often give our clients is our empathy. Our ability to understand and be present for them. I strive to do that – not always successfully – every day.

Dangerous Property Cases From Inception to Verdict

Everyone reading this either has or will have a dangerous property/slip/trip fall in their inventory.If you want to maximize your client’s recovery in these cases and no longer be afraid of taking on property owners or governmental entities for dangerous conditions than join this break out group.

We will cover the following:

  • Properly screening these cases at intake and including all of the ways you can/should be obtaining evidence of other similar incidents before filing suit;
  • How to use the PMQ statute in your favor and get two bites at the apple of deposing the same witness;
  • The key witnesses that most lawyers overlook or fail to depose;
  • How to use mediation privilege as a sword in your governmental entity and third party criminal conduct property cases;
  • Framing your dangerous property case as a systemic failure at trials
  • Participants will be encouraged (but not required) to bring a case to workshop during the group.Should you want to workshop your own case participants will be asked to have 1-2 advanced preparation calls or zooms with me to discuss the case and the issues they want to address.
