He left Big Law after 90 days to chase juries. Now Sharif Gray, Richmond trial lawyer and co-host of the RVA Trial Lawyers podcast, breaks down how authenticity (not interrogation) wins over jurors and drives real results in the courtroom.We get into the hard stuff: valuing cases beyond medical specials and policy limits, the “speed-trial” mindset of cutting what doesn’t serve the story, and why parachuting in close to trial can actually sharpen your case. Sharif also shares a tough crime-victim matter that shows what accountability really looks like—and why some cases are worth saying “no” until it pays.In this episode:<ul><li>Make authenticity your unfair advantage in voir dire</li><li>Price pain and conduct—not just bills and limits</li><li>Speed-trial thinking: cut to win</li><li>Parachute-lawyering: fresh eyes, clearer themes</li><li>Build a career around trials vs. running the business</li><li>Get real reps (JAG, prosecution) when jury trials are scarce</li><li>Intake filters that find clients who want accountability, not just a check</li></ul>Sharif’s Event Voir Dire to Verdict 2025 — practical training from top trial minds.
