1. The Game Changing Attorney Podcast: Authenticity in MVA Content
In a standout episode, this podcast explored how personal injury firms can break through the noise of generic advertising by creating authentic, value-first content specifically for motor vehicle accident victims.
- Episode Title: “Scaling with Social: How Attorney Sarah Jones Dominates the MVA Market”
- Publication Date: June 3, 2025
- Featured Attorney: Sarah Jones, Jones Injury Law, Austin, Texas

Key Discussion Points: Host Michael Mogill sat down with Austin-based PI attorney Sarah Jones of Jones Injury Law to dissect her firm’s incredibly effective social media strategy. The conversation focused on moving away from high-cost, low-trust advertising like billboards and toward creating short-form videos that answer the most immediate questions of someone just in a car wreck. Jones detailed her content calendar, which is built around topics like “What NOT to Say to an Insurance Adjuster” and “3 Steps to Take at the Scene of an Accident.” This approach has positioned Jones Injury Law as a trusted authority, leading to a higher volume of qualified, pre-educated client inquiries.
“We stopped thinking about ads and started thinking about content. A 30-second video explaining what to do after a fender-bender brings in more qualified calls than a billboard ever did because it builds immediate trust before they even dial our number.”
— Sarah Jones, Jones Injury Law
2. Trial Lawyer Nation: Revolutionizing the Intake Process
This episode was a masterclass in the most critical, yet often overlooked, part of client acquisition: intake. The discussion centered on converting more qualified leads into signed cases through empathy and efficiency.
- Episode Title: “The Intake Revolution: Converting More MVA Leads with Chris Edwards”
- Publication Date: June 4, 2025

Key Discussion Points: Host Michael Cowen interviewed Christopher “Chris” Edwards of Edwards & Associates, a firm renowned for its high conversion rates. Edwards argued that most firms lose good cases because their intake process is designed for data collection, not human connection. He shared his “empathy-first” scripting for intake specialists, which prioritizes listening and validation over a robotic checklist of questions. The discussion also covered the implementation of a 24/7 response system, ensuring that no lead from a late-night motor vehicle accident ever goes to voicemail. For any firm looking to improve its marketing ROI, the insights from Chris Edwards on optimizing the intake funnel are invaluable.
“Your intake specialist is the most important person in your firm. They aren’t just collecting data; they are the first impression of your advocacy. If they can’t connect with a panicked MVA victim in the first 60 seconds, that lead is gone.”
— Christopher Edwards, Edwards & Associates
3. Personal Injury Mastermind: Hyper-Targeting for Trucking Cases
For firms handling high-stakes motor vehicle accident cases, this episode provided a granular look at spending advertising dollars effectively to attract commercial trucking accident clients.

- Listen on Apple Podcasts: Direct Link to Episode
Key Discussion Points: Mark Chen of Chen Trial Attorneys provided a deep dive into the nuances of digital advertising for complex MVA cases. He detailed his firm’s strategy for using geofencing around major trucking routes and distribution centers, combined with targeted YouTube ads that speak directly to the devastating impact of 18-wheeler collisions. The key takeaway was the importance of message-market match—not just running a generic “car accident” ad but creating specific campaigns that resonate with the unique circumstances of a trucking accident victim and their family. The insights from Mark Chen are essential for any firm wanting to dominate this lucrative niche.
“We don’t run ‘accident’ ads; we run ‘I-10 trucking disaster’ ads. The specificity is what earns the click and the call. We want potential clients to feel we understand their exact problem before they’ve even told us about it.”
— Mark Chen, Chen Trial Attorneys
4. The Law Funder Podcast: Financial Levers in Practice Management for Growth
Shifting from direct marketing to the operational side, this episode focused on how smart financial management and case cost analysis directly fuel a firm’s ability to scale its marketing and client acquisition efforts.

Key Discussion Points: Attorney David Miller, managing partner of Miller Legal Group, discussed the critical link between law practice management and marketing capacity. He explained how his firm’s meticulous tracking of cost-per-lead and cost-per-signed-case allows them to make data-driven decisions on where to allocate marketing budgets. By understanding the precise economics of their MVA case docket, Miller’s firm can confidently invest in new channels, knowing exactly what return they need to achieve. Miller emphasized that without a firm grasp of your numbers, any marketing expansion is just a gamble.
“Marketing isn’t an expense account; it’s an investment portfolio. If you don’t know the exact acquisition cost and projected value of a case, you’re not investing, you’re guessing. Data drives our growth.”
— David Miller, Miller Legal Group
5. The Maximum Lawyer Podcast: Building a Referral Engine Through Co-Counsel Relationships
This discussion highlighted an often-underutilized channel for client acquisition: building a powerful, systematic referral network with other attorneys.

Key Discussion Points: Jessica Rodriguez of the Rodriguez Injury Firm detailed her proactive approach to generating high-value MVA cases through relationships with lawyers in other practice areas (family law, criminal defense, etc.). She treats co-counsel as a primary marketing channel, nurturing these relationships with the same intentionality as a digital ad campaign. Her advice centered on creating a seamless and generous referral process that makes it easy and profitable for other attorneys to send their personal injury clients her way, creating a powerful and cost-effective stream of new cases.
“Every lawyer you meet knows someone who’s been in a car accident. If you’re not the first person they think of, your marketing has a hole in it. We make sure we are always top-of-mind for our legal colleagues.”
— Jessica Rodriguez, Rodriguez Injury Firm
