Join NYCLA Amicus Curiae: Candid Conversations with host Daniel K. Wiig for our latest episode. On the heels of the upcoming mayoral election, we sit down with nationally recognized trial lawyer and former independent mayoral candidate Jim Walden for a candid conversation about leadership, civic engagement, policy, and the challenges of public life in New York City. Drawing from his experiences in the political arena, Jim offers perspectives on community impact, and lessons learned along the way.

Recording Note:

This episode was recorded before Jim Walden concluded his campaign for NYC Mayor. While he is no longer a candidate, the discussion offers lasting perspectives on leadership, civic engagement, and public service.
