#38 Bibi Fell, Esq. Attorney for the Plaintiff.

Welcome to the Trial Alchemy™ podcast, where I talk with top ABOTA plaintiff and defense trial lawyers and ABOTA civil trial judges about what works, and what doesn't work in civil jury trials.

The Trial Alchemy™ podcast helps attorneys learn from civil jury trial experts about preparing for trial, trial themes, mini-openings, voir dire, opening statements, direct examination, cross examination, final arguments and more. 

In this episode I interview ABOTA member and outstanding plaintiff attorney Bibianne U. Fell, Esq. Thanks for joining me!
