TLC Podcast Episode 116: Emily Fisher’s Five Steps to Reconstructing Success in the Justice System
“There are people who do bad things, but I’ve never met anybody who I felt was just a bad person.”
Continuing our series on ‘Reconstructing Success,’ California Public Defender Emily Fisher explores the ways that trial lawyers can intentionally improve injustices and inefficiencies in the justice system. As she guides listeners through her blueprint to resolving these systemic issues, Emily provides a thought-provoking starting point for the empathic trial lawyer to fine-tune their advocacy for their clients and bring humanity back into the courtroom.
