In this rare, intimate conversation, Jan Schlichtmann — the famed attorney behind A Civil Action — joins Carl Taylor to discuss the philosophical and emotional legacy of his landmark case in Woburn, Massachusetts.

But this is not another rehash of courtroom strategy. Instead, we explore the inner life of a lawyer who risked everything in pursuit of justice, and who continues to grapple with the moral and cultural questions that case raised — not just about law, but about America.

We talk about:

• Why litigation is rarely the best option for those confronting legal issues. 
• The emotional cost of the law. 
• The need for justice in our legal system. 
• Whether the legal system can still serve moral ends
• His evolving view of fame, legacy, and human dignity
• Why storytelling matters more than ever in the age of AI

If you care about justice, narrative, and the human spirit behind the law, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.
