Summary
The Lawyer Stories Podcast Episode 212 features Heather Reese and Michael Pungitore, trial lawyers in Philadelphia focused on personal injury law. We discuss both Heather and Michael's reasons for becoming lawyers and Heather shares with us the only competition you have is who you were the day before. Heather takes pride in being part of the Hispanic National Bar Association, and enjoys the personal aspect of community. Michael, a competitive person by nature, likes the exercise of figuring out the other party's arguments in order to maximize his representation in court. As far as social media goes, Heather tells us to be authentic, don't be fake, and be kind!
