Charla Aldous – A Masterclass in Facing Down Corporate Defendants

Charla Aldous – A Masterclass in Facing Down Corporate Defendants

At her first plaintiffs’ trial, Charla Aldous was the lead lawyer on a team of four, with one legal assistant. The defense, oil and gas station giant Conoco, had around a dozen lawyers and 50 support staff.

Plaintiffs’ lawyers will want to tune into this episode of Trial Lawyers University to hear what happened next. With host Dan Ambrose, Charla, of Aldous \ Walker, reveals humorous, surprising, and poignant moments on her journey to winning high-profile and high-verdict cases. In addition to Conoco, she discusses victories against the Episcopal School of Dallas and Greyhound Lines. Charla also outlines her strategies for success, from voir dire to cross-examining witnesses. And when it’s time to close, she shares her tactic for how plaintiffs’ lawyers can empower the jury.
