Listserve Live Brings OCTLA Attorneys Together

By Firm News and Celebrations, Personal Injury

On September 25, 2025, the Orange County Trial Lawyers Association hosted its first-ever OCTLA Listserve Live event at The Park Club in Costa Mesa. What has long been a valuable online forum for plaintiff attorneys became an engaging in-person conversation, filled with meaningful discussion, collaboration, and shared strategies.

For two hours, plaintiff attorneys had the opportunity to connect face-to-face, ask real-time questions, and gain practical insight into the challenges they encounter in their cases. The room was filled with energy as familiar voices from the online listserv transformed into a dynamic panel discussion and open dialogue.

Clark and his fellow presenters guided discussions that reflected the day-to-day realities of plaintiff work, including accident preparedness for future clients, consultation strategy, communication with clients, and navigating unique legal hurdles. Attorneys walked away not only with fresh ideas, but also with practical tools to implement immediately in their practices.

More Than a Networking Event

This groundbreaking plaintiff attorney networking event was designed exclusively for OCTLA plaintiff attorney members. Along with the open dialogue, attendees earned 1-Hour MCLE Credit, making the experience both informative and beneficial for professional growth. The structured format ensured that discussions remained practical, relevant, and focused on empowering attorneys to advocate effectively for their clients.

Healing Through Trusted Physical Therapy Connections

By Firm News and Celebrations, Personal Injury

Supporting Clients Beyond the Courtroom

At Fielding Law, we know that recovery after an accident is about more than a case result. Healing requires physical, emotional, and financial support. That is why we build strong connections with trusted professionals who can walk beside our clients on the road to recovery. For many, physical therapy after an accident is one of the most important steps to regaining health and independence.

Our team recently welcomed Scott Moncrief of ProSport Physical Therapy Performance for a Brunch and Learn session. Scott shared his expertise on how therapy helps accident victims rebuild strength, reduce pain, and prevent long-term complications. These opportunities allow our attorneys and staff to better understand the treatment process so we can guide clients toward the care they need.

Why Physical Therapy is Important After an Injury

The right physical therapy plan can make the difference between a difficult recovery and a successful one. After an accident, injuries often limit movement, create lasting pain, and disrupt daily life. Without proper treatment, some injuries may even worsen over time. Physical therapy plays a vital role in helping clients overcome these challenges:

  • Pain management: Targeted exercises and treatments can reduce pain without relying heavily on medication.

  • Restoring mobility: Therapy helps improve flexibility and range of motion so clients can return to normal routines.

  • Strength building: Injury can weaken muscles and joints, and therapy rebuilds strength safely.

  • Preventing long-term damage: Early treatment can keep small issues from turning into chronic problems.

  • Boosting confidence: Clients gain independence as they see progress in their recovery.

For many of our clients, physical therapy after an accident is not only about healing the body but also about regaining control and confidence after a difficult experience.

Why Hire Fielding Law

Our mission is to improve the lives of each client through ethical and efficient legal representation. That means fighting for fair compensation while also connecting you with trusted resources that support your healing. Whether it is partnering with respected physical therapists or offering compassionate guidance, Fielding Law is here to help you every step of the way.

If you or a loved one has been injured due to negligence, call 833.88.SHARK today to speak with an experienced member of our team.

At Fielding Law, we know that strong teamwork makes us better advocates for our clients. Recently, our California team focused on growth, trust, and resilience through a California team bonding self-defense class at Rolling Tide Jiu Jitsu.

Learning Self-Defense Together

The class taught us practical techniques to protect ourselves in real-world situations. Our instructors guided us through exercises that emphasized awareness, confidence, and physical control. While some of us were beginners, everyone left feeling empowered and capable.

Building Team Trust

Beyond learning skills, the experience strengthened our teamwork. Working side by side in a supportive environment showed us new ways to communicate, trust each other, and support one another under pressure. This California team bonding self-defense experience reminded us that collaboration and confidence are just as important in the office as they are on the mat.

Why This Matters to Our Clients

Bringing the same teamwork and focus we practiced at Rolling Tide into our cases benefits the clients we serve. Our ability to work together, think quickly, and stay calm under pressure helps us provide effective and compassionate legal guidance.

Daisy’s Role in Client Success

Daisy stepped into a front-line role, often being the very first voice callers heard when reaching out to our office. Whether she was speaking with medical providers, insurance companies, or potential new clients, she guided each conversation with focus and empathy. She listened to clients’ stories, took down key information, and ensured they were connected with the right team member.

Her days included everything from assisting with case management research to sitting in on file review and litigation meetings, learning from each department through Q&A sessions, and even attending a marketing meeting to see the behind-the-scenes work that connects our firm with the community.

One of Daisy’s most heartfelt contributions was creating over 100 personalized, handmade birthday cards for clients with August birthdays. She also sent handwritten notes and care packages to clients experiencing loss, undergoing surgery, or navigating a difficult moment. Reflecting on her time at Fielding Law, Daisy shared, “During my time here at Fielding Law, I learned that advocacy is not loud, it is focused, empathetic, and human. That quiet strength raised the bar for the kind of work I want to do and the people I want to do it with. Seeing justice pursued in that way is hard to forget.”

Internship Insights: What I Learned at Fielding Law

By Firm News and Celebrations, Personal Injury, Public Entity

My internship at Fielding Law was more than a chance to develop my writing skills; it was an eye-opening journey into the legal world and a supportive team culture. At first, I only wanted to improve my professional writing. A family friend, Clark Fielding, encouraged me to apply so I could shadow their Director of Art & Brand Development. That recommendation led to an experience that expanded my knowledge of personal injury law. It introduced me to a team dedicated to kindness, professionalism, and collaboration.

What I Learned About Personal Injury Law

I learned that more situations qualify as valid legal cases than I once believed. For example, if someone trips over an overgrown tree root at a public park, it could be a public entity case. The city or responsible agency may be liable for the negligence if they did not maintain the area. Before this internship, I assumed I would be solely at fault in that situation.

I also realized how many team members work on each case to achieve the best outcome for clients. Each success is the result of coordinated efforts from many professionals.

What Surprised Me Most About Fielding Law

The culture and communication style at Fielding Law is professional, respectful, and supportive. The team strives to uplift each other and communicate with openness and honesty. They truly live the idea of ‘Rise Together.’ They want the best for everyone they meet and give thoughtful, genuine advice.

From observing attorneys and case managers, I saw that even in difficult cases, a positive outlook matters. That attitude helps clients feel more at ease and builds trust in Fielding Law.

Tips I Would Give to Clients Now

Having been on the other side, I understand what it feels like to be injured in an accident. My best advice is to stay positive and remember that calling a law firm does not have to be intimidating. Even if Fielding Law cannot take your case, the team works hard to connect you with a firm that can help. Trusting Fielding Law to handle the legal complexities lifts a huge burden and keeps your case moving forward.

What It Meant to Be a Fielding Law Shark

My favorite project was interviewing each team member in person. This gave me the chance to connect with coworkers on a deeper level and learn about their passion for helping clients. I discovered that I enjoy turning a blank page into a meaningful message. Stepping out of my comfort zone leads to opportunities I did not expect. This Fielding Law internship experience showed me I can pursue bold ambitions. It also inspired me to build a career in multimedia journalism within the fashion industry.

I sincerely thank the Fielding Law team for making me feel welcome and accepted. They are committed to helping everyone grow and become the best version of themselves.

Looking Ahead

Over the past three months, this internship has strengthened my confidence in my abilities. As I work toward a Bachelor of Arts in Communications with an emphasis in Journalism from Brigham Young University, I will carry this experience with me.

Fielding Law values interns and future law students. They take pride in showing how a law firm operates, always leading with kindness, professionalism, and care. Being part of the team has set a high standard for my future, and I am grateful for the example they have given me. This Fielding Law internship experience will continue to guide me as I move forward in my career.
