Listening to the  podcast is a great way for all civil trial lawyers, whether they've tried no cases or lots of cases, to learn from civil jury trial experts.  In episode #19, I talk with ABOTA member and outstanding civil plaintiff attorney David J. Munoz, Esq. Thanks for joining me! Guest Resume: David J. Munoz, Esq.  David Munoz has been a California civil trial lawyer since 2010, representing plaintiffs in personal injury and other tort cases. The managing partner of Mission Personal Injury Lawyers, David has recovered millions of dollars for his clients in jury trials and settlements. Over the years it has become harder for younger attorneys to get civil trial experience. ABOTA has recognized this by reducing its jury trial requirements from 20 jury trials, to 10 jury trials, to the current requirement of 7 jury trial to conclusion.  Wanting to become an excellent civil jury trial lawyer, David actively sought opportunities to try civil cases and became a member of the American Board of Trial Advocates in 2020 when 10 civil jury trials to conclusion were required. During our interview David shared suggestions for how younger attorneys can get civil jury trial experience these days.     David has received numerous awards, including being named one the 40 Under 40 by the National Trial Lawyers in 2019 and 2020, and has annually received an AV rating by Martindale Hubble since 2021.  Guest Contact Information: David J.
