When you think of a billboard attorney— or just any personal injury attorney— what do YOU think of? If stuffy, egotistical, or know-it-all come to mind, then prepare to be enlightened!
On this episode of the Law Have Mercy! podcast, we sat down with Personal Injury attorney Max Antony from Manicocca, Louisiana, who has brilliantly navigated the billboard market in his small town. Max shares his journey from his days as an insurance defense lawyer, his struggle with the stigma of being an injury lawyer, and how he has managed to strike the right balance between brand awareness and client service.
Listen as Max and our own host & Personal Injury attorney, Chaz Roberts, take a deep look at the importance of authenticity in the legal field and share an honest, candid conversation about how they try to run their law firms whilst building their brands AND blazing their own paths in an area of the law that is not lacking it’s fair share of less-than-stellar stereotypes.
The two kindred spirits dive right into discussion about how a lawyer's genuine connection with clients can create trust and loyalty, the impact of the insurance industry on public's perception and share strategies they each use to change this narrative. Max gives us an honest account of his personal battles in business and his ongoing efforts to redefine the role of a personal injury lawyer in the community.
In the latter part of the candid, compelling conversation, the two attorneys draw parallels between running a law firm and activities like boxing, running, and parenting. Max underscores the significance of mental strength, hard work, and resilience in these different spheres of life, and Chaz shares inspiring insights and some of the solutions that he’s found success with in his own firm.
By the end, you’re sure to not just learn more about the challenges and triumphs of the legal professional, but begin to appreciate the passion and dedication that drives professionals like these two young attorneys. Prepare to be inspired by their shared commitment to being the best, with some hilarious highlights along the way.
