In this episode of On Trial, host Christopher DeGennaro sits down with Foley senior partner Mike Gay, former chair of Foley’s national Litigation Department, with 30 years’ experience as a trial lawyer focusing on bet-the-company litigation. In addition to speaking about his path to trial practice, Mike explains his view on the most important part of a trial (voir dire) and shares some of his trial war stories, including famously defending a newspaper in a defamation action brought by a mob enforcer.
