Shownotes

In this episode of The Injury Pros Podcast, host Michael Saile, Managing Partner at injury law firm Cordisco & Saile, sits down with trial attorney Javier Gonzalez to discuss his journey into the legal profession and his transition into personal injury law.

Javier shares how a mentor in college inspired him to pursue law, what it was like being the first attorney in his family, and how his early experience as a judicial clerk and prosecutor shaped his approach to litigation. The conversation dives into the transferable skills between criminal and civil practice, including investigation, trial preparation, and client communication.

Most importantly, Javier explains why client relationships and service are at the core of his practice and how those values align with the firm’s mission. This episode offers valuable insight for young attorneys and anyone interested in what it takes to build a meaningful career in injury law.
