Description

Winning in the court of law often depends on mastering the court of public opinion. So how do lawyers and crisis PR experts shape public opinion to influence high-stakes legal battles? 


Wizard of Spin Mike Sitrick and senior partner at Sitrick and Company Sallie Hofmeister explore the powerful connection between media influence and legal outcomes.


From crisis management to PR strategies in litigation, Sitrick and Hofmeister sit down with America’s leading lawyers and PR minds to reveal how media narratives can make or break a case. 


Matthew Schwartz, Chairman of Boies Schiller, joins the show to discuss his role in the Bernie Madoff investigation. Jeffrey Kessler, Co-Executive Chairman of Winston & Strawn, shares insights from his work with Tom Brady on Deflate-Gate, NFL lockouts, Ray Rice, and lawsuits that changed college athlete compensation. And Patricia Glaser, one of the nation’s most sought-after litigators, breaks down the Blake Lively vs. Justin Baldoni legal dispute and other celebrity-driven cases.


Whether it’s controlling the conversation, managing reputations, or leveraging public sentiment, this podcast shares what you need to know about legal media strategies.
