    Why ChatGPT Can’t Replace Personal Injury Lawyers: Inside EvenUp’s Proprietary AI with Ray Mieszaniec, Ray Lakhani, & Adam Warren

    They said ChatGPT would kill his company overnight. Instead, it became the tailwind that propelled EvenUp to a $2 Billion valuation. In this episode of Open N' Raw, hosts Ray Lakhani (Raw Law Media) and Adam Warren (OpenJar Concepts) sit down with Ray Mieszaniec, Co-Founder and COO of EvenUp, live from the National Trial Lawyers Summit. This isn’t just a tech conversation; it’s a story of resilience. Ray opens up about the personal tragedy that fueled the creation of EvenUp—a horrific accident involving his father and a runaway shooter that resulted in a settlement far below what the family deserved. That injustice sparked a mission to close the "Justice Gap" and ensure plaintiffs never leave money on the table again. Ray breaks down the difference between generic Large Language Models (like ChatGPT) and EvenUp’s proprietary legal AI, explaining why "Human in the Loop" isn't a weakness—it's a necessity for accuracy in law. In this episode, we cover: The Origin Story: How a $200k settlement for a catastrophic injury inspired a multi-billion dollar mission.Proprietary Data vs. Open AI: Why generic AI models fail at reading medical records and police reports without specialized context.The "Fake AI" Controversy: Ray addresses early industry criticisms about human review and why competitors are now copying their model.Surviving the Hype: How EvenUp 10x’d their growth when others thought Generative AI would make them obsolete.The Future of PI: How technology is empowering case managers and attorneys to draft comprehensive demands in minutes, not hours.Connect with the Guest: EvenUp: evenuplaw.comRay Mieszaniec: https://www.instagram.com/mieszaniec?igsh=MmVhdTRxZ2pqYzVs This Episode is Powered by Lawyer.com A huge thank you to our partners at Lawyer.com for sponsoring this episode and the Open N' Raw booth at the National Trial Lawyers Summit.

    Women in Trial Travel Summit | Lauren Wood of L Wood Law | Open n Raw Podcast

    In this episode of Open N Raw, Ray Lakhani, founder of Raw Law Media, and Adam Warren, Co-founder of OpenJar Concepts, sit down with Lauren Wood, founder of LWood Law and the Women in Trial Travel Summit. They discuss how she identified a void in the legal industry—a lack of spaces for women trial lawyers to connect authentically—and filled it by building an international travel network that prioritizes relationships over business cards. Ray Lakhani leads the conversation as he and Adam Warren unpack the intersection of authenticity, branding, and marketing in a traditional industry. Lauren shares her journey of defying the "stuffy suit" lawyer stereotype—tattoos and all—and explains why word-of-mouth remains the most powerful marketing engine when your product is genuine connection. From the struggles of delegation to the art of balancing a boutique law practice with a global event brand, this episode challenges the standard definition of what a successful lawyer looks like. Ray Lakhani and Adam Warren discuss how operators should approach relationship building and work-life balance in a high-burnout profession. They explore why shared experiences (like travel) create stronger referral networks than any boardroom meeting ever could. This is not just about law; it’s about having the courage to write your own rules and the discipline to build systems that allow you to live by them. Open N Raw is hosted by Ray Lakhani of Raw Law Media and Adam Warren of OpenJar Concepts, featuring candid conversations with leaders who understand that attention is earned, not bought, and that execution beats noise every time.
