As Joe tells Lawdragon, representing injured patients and families in complex claims provides a challenge he cherishes, and an opportunity to help real people overcome incredible obstacles in their fight for justice:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur system isn\u2019t eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth. A patient client can\u2019t possibly understand, advocate, argue, and discuss medicine in a recorded session with doctors in their arena, their medical specialty. In a room of lawyers, it\u2019s me versus the entire defense team. Unlike other injury cases, in medical malpractice it\u2019s one against many.I treat the occurrence like it happened to my family. I love the challenge of proving the merit of the case to the room. It\u2019s an exhilarating adrenaline rush similar to success in sport. The David versus Goliath fight makes the work even more rewarding.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Joe goes on to discuss some of his most memorable cases, clients, and colleagues, as well as his time working as a law clerk for Power Rogers while attending law school. Joe also shares his honest and straightforward approach when it comes to speaking with the firm\u2019s potential clients:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe best advertisement are case results. I keep a list on the firm website of every successful case with a description of facts and court details from my first year at Power Rogers in 2000 until today. I don\u2019t talk bad about our competitors, as there are many great lawyers. I just want the client to pick a lawyer they are conformable with, as this is the biggest decision of their lives. Being aggressive and over-selling are not honest and credible. If I don\u2019t get the case, while disappointed, it\u2019s not about me. The client is all that matters.\u201dYou can read more about <a href=\"\/attorney\/balesteri-joseph-w\/\">Joseph Balesteri<\/a>, his many accomplishments, and Power Rogers\u2019 <a href=\"\/about\/our-success-record\/\">success record<\/a> in medical malpractice cases on our website.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Partner Joseph Balesteri has been featured in Lawdragon Magazine\u2019s Lawyer Limelight, a special feature section that profiles some of the most accomplished and respected trial attorneys in the nation.
