Episode description

On this episode, Yvette interviews lawyer, author and legal ethics professor Richard Zitrin about his book "Trial Lawyer: A Life Representing People Against Power." Zitrin shares the most difficult legal ethical dilemmas he faced as a trial lawyer, whether a lawyer should act as a "mouthpiece" for a client or their "savior," and how he navigated being a mouthpiece for clients who were minors while advocating for what he believed to be in their best interest.
