Eric Strober on Medical Malpractice Defense and the Trial Mindset

In this riveting episode of The Litigator’s Edge, host Aniket Sawant, Co-Founder and CEO of Threadeo, sits down with Eric Strober, head of the medical malpractice defense department at Rivkin Radler and seasoned high-stakes trial lawyer. Eric shares his multi-generation path into medical malpractice, from plaintiff-side exposure in his early years to building a defense career shaped by mentorship, federal trial victories, and real courtroom pressure. He recounts early motion work connected to the O.J. Simpson civil case, a nationally recognized federal defense verdict, and the mindset required to take cases all the way to verdict in an era dominated by settlement culture. The conversation dives deep into: • The psychology of true trial lawyers • Using trial as negotiation leverage • Countering plaintiff tactics like anchoring and reptile theory • Making damages “real” for juries • The strategic realities behind $15M demands • Toxic tort causation defense • The impact of EMRs, AI, and post-COVID litigation • The growing pressures of private equity and consolidation in healthcare Eric explains why preparation often feels harder than trial itself and why fear of picking a jury is something young lawyers must overcome. This episode is a masterclass in courtroom psychology, strategy, and the evolving landscape of medical malpractice defense. #MedicalMalpractice #TrialLaw #LitigationStrategy #TrialLawyer #DefenseAttorney #JuryPsychology #ReptileTheory #LegalPodcast #TheLitigatorsEdge #CourtroomStrategy #LegalLeadership
