Spencer Lucas learned three important lessons from legendary personal injury lawyer Brian Panish: preparation, aggressiveness, and authenticity. A partner at the firm Brian co-founded, Panish Shea Ravipudi LLP, Spencer put those lessons to work, with Brian, to secure $135 million for two survivors of childhood sexual abuse.
Listen in as Spencer breaks down the case against the Moreno Valley Unified School District for host Dan Ambrose. In addition to describing hurdles that the team overcame, Spencer discusses spearheading the firm’s efforts to find justice for sexual abuse survivors in the wake of California’s Assembly Bill 218, which gives survivors the right to file claims that were otherwise time-barred. As Spencer explains, it’s less about the monetary results and more about shining a light on institutions that covered up abuse. “It’s been incredibly satisfying for me as a lawyer to be a part of this awareness,” he says.
At TLU Vegas, Spencer will lead a workshop about navigating sexual abuse cases, sharing insight on strategic considerations for discovery, depositions, witnesses, and more.
