In today’s hyper-competitive legal market, podcasts have become far more than a content marketing tool — they’re now strategic platforms where lawyers, marketers, and legal tech companies shape the industry’s narrative, showcase expertise, and attract high-value cases.
The most successful personal injury and motor vehicle accident (MVA) attorneys aren’t simply running ads. They’re producing or appearing on podcasts designed to educate, persuade, and position themselves as the go-to choice for both clients and referring attorneys.
In this report, we break down key episodes from leading legal podcasts, analyzing how America’s top personal injury lawyers use these platforms to dominate their niches, build trust, and convert more signed cases.
Featured Podcast Insights & Attorney Profiles
1. Michael Mogill – The Game Changing Attorney Podcast
City: Atlanta, GA
Firm/Company: Crisp (Founder & CEO)
Website: https://crisp.co/
While Michael Mogill isn’t a practicing attorney, his Game Changing Attorney Podcast has become a staple for growth-focused PI firms. In Episode 287 — “Dan Martell — Buy Back Your Time” — Mogill explores how lawyers can scale their firms by thinking like CEOs.
Rather than talking legal tactics, Mogill focuses on leadership and operational efficiency. By introducing concepts like Dan Martell’s “Buyback Principle,” he’s sending a clear message: the firms that grow the fastest are the ones that run like high-performing businesses.
Key Takeaway: Even without direct legal advice, Mogill uses the podcast to position Crisp as the bridge between elite business strategy and law firm marketing execution.
2. Robert D. Jarchi – Personal Injury Marketing Minute
City: El Segundo, CA
Firm: Greene, Broillet & Wheeler, LLP
Website: https://www.gbw.law/
In Episode 72 — “Advice for New Lawyers” — Robert D. Jarchi, a partner at one of California’s premier plaintiff firms, focuses on mentorship, skill-building, and professional reputation.
While not overtly about advertising, the episode is marketing gold. Jarchi emphasizes that the foundation of long-term client acquisition is competence, reputation, and integrity, not quick wins or gimmicks.
Quote from Robert D. Jarchi:
“Your reputation is your most valuable asset. Build it carefully, protect it fiercely, and it will bring you clients for the rest of your career.”
Key Takeaway: For PI lawyers, brand authority starts with professional excellence — and podcasts are a powerful platform for reinforcing that image.
3. Josh A. Fogelman & Aaron J. Von Flatern – Summary Judgment
City: Austin, TX
Firm: FVF Law
Website: https://www.fvflawfirm.com/
In the episode “What About Difficult Personalities?” founding partners Josh Fogelman and Aaron Von Flatern tackle the realities of managing emotionally distressed or demanding clients.
By addressing this publicly, they position FVF Law as empathetic, transparent, and client-focused — values that resonate with potential clients and generate referrals from other attorneys.
Quote from Josh A. Fogelman:
“Our job isn’t just to win cases — it’s to help people through one of the most stressful moments of their lives with honesty and compassion.”
Key Takeaway: Compassion is a differentiator. When a law firm brands itself around client care, every podcast appearance becomes a soft conversion tool.
4. David W. Craig – After the Crash
City: Indianapolis, IN
Firm: Craig, Kelley & Faultless LLC
Website: https://www.ckflaw.com/
In Episode 65 — “Hiring the Wrong Lawyer After a Truck Crash” — board-certified truck accident lawyer David Craig warns against hiring unqualified attorneys for catastrophic trucking cases.
Quote from David W. Craig:
“It’s never been easier to hire the wrong attorney.”
This fear-based but ethical positioning underscores his own expertise. By pairing his voice with guest Harlan Schillinger — the “Grandfather of Legal Marketing” — Craig drives home the message that complex truck crash cases require specialized experience and resources.
Key Takeaway: Niche authority, paired with strategic guests, creates content that educates while positioning the host as the safest choice.
Strategic Trends Emerging from the Legal Podcast Space
From this analysis, three powerful trends stand out:
- The Intake Imperative – The most competitive firms are obsessed with lead conversion, not just generation. They invest in rapid follow-up, long-term nurturing, and specialized intake training.
- Niche Dominance – Specialization in high-value case types (like trucking accidents) creates authority and filters out low-value leads.
- Media Company Mindset – The best firms now operate like media brands, producing consistent, multi-platform content to stay top-of-mind.
