It was losing a personal injury case in mid-career that almost made Jimmy Gustafson give up the practice of trial law. In a few minutes, you’ll hear about the inspirational story that changed him - and his career - and the lesson he learned about true success.
He is a past president of the Florida Justice Association, an Eagle Founder, and winner of the Jon Krupnick Award. It’s given for perseverance in achieving justice for an injured client. And it was that very case that he credits with giving him a renewed feeling of gratitude in being a trial lawyer.
Jimmy Gustafson of Tallahassee sat down with Florida Justice Association Radio host Harvey Bennett in November of 2020 to share his life’s journey, the rules his loving wife Josie laid down that helped, and how, through questioning himself, he’s become a better lawyer.
Show Notes: Jimmy Gustafson is a Shareholder and Managing Partner of the Tallahassee office of Searcy Denney Scarola Barnhart & Shipley of West Palm Beach, Florida – www.searcylaw.com
