On this week’s episode, host David Muñoz sits down with Bill Ogden of Farrar & Ball, LLP—the trial team behind the Alex Jones defamation victories. They dive into the strategy behind the Sandy Hook litigation, navigating bankruptcy tactics, and why civil juries—not social media—are the most effective check on disinformation. Bill also talks about current defamation matters, the economics and risk of trying seven-figure cases on contingency, and why more plaintiff lawyers should step outside their comfort zones to take on work that moves the needle.
