17 - The Power of Medical Insight in Legal Advocacy with Grossman Law Firm's Deborah Grossman-Mitchell
Manage episode 398219053 series 3551555
Your host, Audrey Ehrhardt, talks with the Social Security and VA Disability Lawyer of Grossman Law Firm, Deborah Grossman-Mitchell. Deborah's transition from healthcare to law is a story of passion and dedication. Her medical background gives her an unparalleled advantage in understanding her clients' medical impairments. This integration of medical knowledge into her law practice is not just a unique selling point; it's a crucial element that allows her to advocate effectively for her clients. It's fascinating to see how her expertise in two distinct fields can come together to provide a comprehensive service.
One of the most candid moments in the conversation was when Deborah shared her realization post-law school: she knew nothing about running a business. This is a stark reminder for new lawyers that a degree doesn't necessarily translate to business acumen. Deborah's proactive approach led her to pursue an executive MBA at Auburn University, equipping her with the necessary skills to navigate the business side of her practice. Her advice to new lawyers is invaluable – be prepared to learn about business just as much as you learn about law.
