Ep. 73: What Makes a Great Truck Crash Lawyer with Christy Crowe Childers || After the Crash Podcast

In this powerful episode of After the Crash, Board Certified Truck Accident Attorney David Craig sits down with fellow Board Certified trial lawyer Christy Crowe Childers, one of the few women in the country to earn this distinction in trucking law.

Together, they break down what truly separates settlement lawyers from trial lawyers, why board certification matters when hiring an attorney for a serious truck wreck case, and how Christy’s innovative “Damages House” method is helping jurors understand the true value of pain, loss, and grief.

You’ll also hear Christy’s thoughts on:
✔️ Why families must interview attorneys before hiring
✔️ What trucking lawyers should know about representing injured truck drivers
✔️ How she built the Mother Truckers program and why real lawyers train like drivers
✔️ The importance of focus groups and how juries are changing
✔️ How attorneys can push for rule changes after a fatal crash
