Texas trial attorney Chip Babcock joins host Mike Herring to reflect on a career shaped by storytelling, authenticity, and high-profile advocacy. From his early days in journalism to defending headline-making clients like Oprah Winfrey and Dr. Phil, and representing media giants such as Google and Warner Brothers, Babcock shares how credibility and sincerity in the courtroom build trust with juries—even under intense public scrutiny. He also recounts his defense in high-stakes defamation suits, including Dolcefino v. Turner, a case that drew national attention. With insights on trial strategy and media management, Babcock discusses how narrative, integrity, and public perception can all influence effective trial practice.
