#22 2025 National ABOTA President Jennifer Haltom Doan, Esq. Discusses the Rule of Law.
Welcome to the Trial Alchemy™ podcast!
Normally, I talk with top ABOTA plaintiff and defense trial lawyers, and ABOTA civil trial judges about what works, and what doesn't work when trying a case to a jury. Listening to the podcast is a great way for all civil trial lawyers, whether they've tried no cases or lots of cases, to learn from civil jury trial experts.
In this episode we're doing something different. Less than half-way through this year in 2025 we've seen an unprecedented number of events that have impacted and created challenges to the Rule of Law that is a key fundamental foundation underlying our democracy in the United States.
In this episode #22, I have a wide-ranging discussion with Jennifer Haltom Doan, Esq., the 2025 National President of the American Board of Trial Advocates, about the Rule of Law. Thanks for listening!
