How do you scale a high-volume traffic ticket and DUI defense law firm in today’s tech-driven world? On this episode of the Hot Docket Podcast, we sit down with Adam Cohen, Founding Partner at Ticket Crushers, to find out.

Adam reveals how his firm went from a Bay Area startup to a statewide operation, handling thousands of traffic and DUI cases while keeping clients informed every step of the way. The secret?
