Don't Eat the Bruises: How to Foil Their Plans to Spoil Your Case (Audiobook)

Keith Mitnik’s book is a must-read for any aspiring personal injury attorney and for more experienced trial lawyers. Mitnik is the finest civil trial lawyer to present cases to the jury in trials over which I have presided. 

Keith lives in courtrooms. His ideas on jury selection, opening, and burden of proof are original, practical, and usable in your next trial.

Keith’s ideas are fresh, exciting, and powerful. This is a truly exceptional book for trial lawyers of all skill levels. People will be talking about this book for a long time. 

Unlike approaches that require attorneys to cram evidence into a one-size-fits-all template, Mr. Mitnik’s framework can be integrated with any case’s nuances. This innovative approach will change the way you try cases.

Don’t Eat the Bruisesis the best book on trial advocacy you will read this year. I guarantee it will wash the bad taste of opposing counsel’s shenanigans right out of your mouth!

Keith is a killer, and his book is a compendium of killer concepts. There are brand-new ideas borne of painstaking devotion and remakes of tried and true techniques that shine as new. For years I’ve sought and used his guidance at trial, now you can too.

Keith Mitnik is the kind of down-home trial lawyer who comes along once in a lifetime. He doesn’t just try cases, he knows how to teach trial lawyers to win.

I was lucky enough to have Keith teach me how to become a lawyer right out of law school. The lessons in this book armed me with the confidence to try any case. His methods allowed me to become one of the youngest board-certified civil trial lawyers in the history of Florida.

After seven years of practicing law without Keith’s concepts, I began learning and implementing them. Shortly thereafter, I obtained a $2.9 million verdict that would not have been possible without Keith’s teachings.

He got seven-figure verdicts, then eight-figure verdicts. They just keep coming, and I have had a front row seat for twenty years. He has a secret sauce that he has bottled just for us with this book. Try it. You’ll like it.

As a jury consultant who works all over the country with some of the best lawyers in the business, I can tell you Keith Mitnik is one of those rare talents that comes along every decade or so. If Mitnik wrote it, you would be wise to read it.

I was fortunate to learn Keith’s techniques right out of law school. I went from a ‘baby lawyer’ to a real threat. I’ve tried eighteen cases to verdict in four years and only lost one. I credit much of my success to Keith’s systems. The best part is it works on all cases, not just the big ones.

Keith Mitnik’s Don’t Eat the Bruises is destined to be a masterwork in the pantheon of trial practice literature. It’s a must-read, must-use, must-reread manual on the righteous fight!

I am a warrior—a trial lawyer. My arena is the courtroom. This book is a must-read for anyone who aspires to be a real trial lawyer.

I clerked for Keith while I was in law school. Listening to him lit a fire in me that will never be extinguished. Reading this book is the greatest gift young lawyers will ever give themselves.

Warning—reading this book will make you want to try more cases! Mitnik has shoehorned decades of experience into deceptively simple strategies for any personal injury case—big or small. This book is for any lawyer ready to turn down the insurance company’s next low-ball settlement offer and seek justice in a courtroom.”

Keith Mitnik is an ‘in the courtroom’ trial lawyer. He is encouraging us all to realize we can be the same. This is going to be my firm’s new handbook!

Don’t Eat The Bruises is the A-to-Z guide on selecting a jury and trying a case. After reading this book, I incorporated Keith’s strategies into my practice and I will never pick a jury the same way again.

Keith is a lawyer who can try any case, big or small. He got on my radar screen by being cutting edge. He’s smarter than the average bear.
