340. The Trial Method Behind $90M Verdicts (With One Paralegal) w/ Eric Fong
Growth is the goal for many trial attorneys — more cases, more verdicts, more visibility. But where most zig, Eric Fong zags. With just one paralegal and complete commitment to the work, he turned down a $25K offer and won a $91 million verdict — the largest in Washington State history.
Eric doesn’t chase scale. He builds deep focus. That focus comes with a cost — sometimes leaving him physically depleted after trial — but it’s also what makes him one of the most respected courtroom tacticians in the country.
In this conversation, Eric shares:
-
How he’s built a thriving practice around simplicity and selectivity
-
The mental and emotional toll of high-stakes litigation — and how he manages it
-
Why stepping away from the noise can sharpen your edge in trial
-
And how generosity, rest, and storytelling shape the way he wins
