Two Sisters. One Fight. Justice Delivered.

Welcome to Trial War Stories — where host Andy Goldwasser sits down with some of the nation’s best trial lawyers to unpack unforgettable cases that tested their limits, shaped their careers, and redefined justice in the courtroom.

In this episode, Andy talks with Nick DiCello, a top Cleveland trial lawyer and current President of the Cleveland Metropolitan Bar Association. Nick shares the inside story behind a powerful wrongful death trial — a case involving two sisters who fought for justice after losing their sibling in a nursing home.

Together, Andy and Nick go beyond the verdict to explore:

• How trial teams prepare for high-stakes cases.
• The power of demonstrative exhibits and real-time storytelling.
• The strategy behind managing damages, jury selection, and credibility.
• Why authenticity and preparation can change everything in front of a jury.

This is more than a trial recap — it’s a masterclass in advocacy, strategy, and human connection inside the courtroom.

If you’re a lawyer, law student, or just fascinated by courtroom drama and the craft of persuasion, this episode will inspire you to think differently about what it means to fight — and win — for justice.
