"I used AI instead of hiring a lawyer." Then this happened.

I just got a call from someone who used AI to file their own personal injury lawsuit. They realized they were in over their head and asked me to take over.

Here's the hard part: I couldn't help them.

ChatGPT and AI tools are great for background knowledge — for understanding the basics of the law when you don't know where to start. But they are not a substitute for a lawyer's judgment. Most of them even say so. There's a disclaimer after every legal question telling you to talk to a lawyer.

This person didn't. They made procedural errors AI couldn't catch — errors a lawyer likely would have. Now their case is about to be thrown out of court, and there's nothing anyone can do.

Use AI to learn. Don't use it to replace the person your whole case depends on.

Did you use AI for a legal question? I'm genuinely curious — tell me in the comments.

The case I lost? It was my own.

When I took the California Bar Exam, I thought I could pass without even trying. I was already a practicing attorney. I'd won a handful of jury trials. I figured it would be easy.

I was wrong. My name wasn't on the passing list. I was humbled.

I took it again — and passed. And honestly, I'm glad it happened. Because it taught me there is no substitute for hard work and preparation.

That lesson is built into how I run my practice now. I work every case, then rework it, until it's ready for trial and I'm confident we're going to win. My clients get the benefit of a lawyer who learned — the hard way — that preparation is everything.

If you've ever had to learn a lesson the hard way, tell me in the comments. I'd love to hear it.

I've never talked about what it's like to work for an insurance company. Until now.

Fresh out of law school, I went to work for one of the big ones — the kind you've seen in a hundred commercials.

Within months, they fired every experienced paralegal we had and replaced them with people who barely knew the job. Cheaper. Then a VP got on a call and told a room full of attorneys he could replace us with lawyers from other countries for less money. The message was simple: shut up and do your job.

That's what insurance companies do. It doesn't matter if you're an employee or someone with an injury claim. If you stand between them and their profit, they will do whatever it takes to win.

That's why I left. And it's exactly why I fight them now.

Save this and send it to someone who's dealing with an insurance company.

If someone you love is ever in an accident, here's exactly what to tell them.

I'm a personal injury attorney. I know things most people don't find out until it's too late — and I'd rather you know them now.

1. Talk to an attorney before you talk to anyone else. Get your story straight before the insurance company or their adjuster ever reaches you.

2. Always get medical treatment — even if you feel fine. You can be injured and not know it. Get checked out as soon as you can.

3. Never post on social media. Adjusters and defense attorneys pay investigators to comb your accounts for anything they can use to shrink your claim.

Save this — and send it to one person who drives.

Three things insurance companies do not want you to know 👇

1. You don't have to give a recorded statement. The adjuster calls hoping to catch you while you're injured and not thinking clearly — then uses what you say against you later.

2. You don't have to take the first offer. The longer you wait and the more you build the case, the more it's worth. They know that.

3. Filing a claim on your own policy for an injury doesn't automatically raise your rate. In California and Washington, specific codes prohibit it.

Save this — and send it to one person who's been in an accident.

Insurance companies don't like to pay. So today I took one to court.

The case is straightforward — an injury case that has to pay.

But the insurance company representing the defendant thinks they've found a way out.

A reason they don't have to cover my client's injuries.

They're going to find out the hard way.

This is what we do at Axion.

When insurance companies take advantage of injured people, we fight.

If someone you love gets in an accident, send them this.

📲As a personal injury attorney, I know things most people don't find out until it's already too late. Here are three things you need to know in case you get into an accident.

Talk to an attorney before you talk to anyone else. Get your story straight before the insurance company's adjuster calls you — and they will call you fast.

Get medical treatment immediately. Even if you feel fine. Injuries from accidents don't always show up right away and waiting can hurt your case.

Never post on social media. Insurance companies hire investigators specifically to comb your accounts looking for anything they can use to minimize your claim or destroy your credibility at trial.

A client called me this week, and it reminded me exactly why I do this work.

He came to me after working with another attorney. Years of pain, lost wages, and fighting with his insurance company, yet he still could not get his own lawyer on the phone. Every call was pushed to a case manager. Every question went to a paralegal who had never even met him.

We took over the case and secured a policy limit settlement.

But the call afterward is what stayed with me. Not the courtroom. Not the ego. Just hearing someone finally feel heard after years of being dismissed.

If you or someone you love feels stuck at their current firm, you have options. You are allowed to switch attorneys during your case, and sometimes it is the best decision you can make.

This is the story I've never shared publicly — until now.

I worked inside the insurance industry for years. What I watched happen to my dad is happening to someone's parent right now, and most families don't realize it until it's too late.

If you've ever been told "your insurance won't approve that" — save this post.

Send it to the person in your family who handles the medical decisions.

And tell me in the comments 👇 has an insurance company ever overridden your doctor?

The insurance adjuster will call within days of your accident. Sometimes hours.

They will sound friendly. They will tell you it is just a quick recorded statement so they can wrap things up.

Here is what is really happening.

They are trained to ask questions in a specific way. The kind that gets you on the record saying you are "fine" before you have even seen a doctor. Or downplaying the pain because it has only been three days and you do not want to seem dramatic.

That recording becomes part of your file. Months later, when your back still is not right, when the headaches have not stopped, when the bills are stacking up — that early statement gets used to argue your injuries are not as serious as you are claiming.

So a few things from me.

Do not give a recorded statement. Not yet. Not before you have spoken with your own attorney.

If they have already called and you talked, do not panic. But sit down today and write everything you remember. What they asked. What you said. The time and date. That document protects you.

And if you have not picked an attorney yet, the call is free. You owe nothing for finding out where you stand.

A question I get a lot: “Will I have to keep the settlement confidential?”
At my firm, the answer is no.

I will be upfront. Confidentiality clauses are pretty standard in personal injury cases, and a lot of firms accept them without thinking twice. I take a different approach, and this is one of the places it shows up.

When a case settles quietly, the company, hospital, or insurer that caused the harm gets to keep operating like nothing happened. Their record stays clean. The next person walks in blind. To me, that defeats a big part of what these cases are supposed to do, which is hold someone accountable in a way that actually matters.

Your story belongs to you. If you ever want to share what happened, talk about it publicly, or warn someone else, I think that should be your call, not the insurance company’s.

This is not the right approach for every situation, and I always talk it through with the client. But it is the standard I work to, and I would rather be honest about it up front.

If you have been injured in Washington or California and want to talk it through, the consultation is free.
