Ep 28: Empathy in Criminal Defense with Henry George Gereis

Description

Henry George Gereis is the principal attorney at Gereis law. He is the son of Christian Egyptian immigrants.

Henry attended Pepperdine University Caruso School of Law, where he ambitiously completed a joint three-year Juris Doctorate/ Masters in Dispute Resolution program, graduating in 2016 from the nation's #1 Masters in Dispute Resolution program. It was at Pepperdine that Henry mastered the interest-based, "below the line" approach to dispute resolution that is so valuable in negotiating excellent settlements for clients throughout his professional practice. Early in his career, Henry practiced Family Law, before transitioning to a practice that fulfilled his desire to serve indigent populations. Henry volunteered at the Santa Barbara Public Defenders Office, before accepting a Deputy Public Defender position at the Kern County Public Defender.

Gereis Law is the embodiment of "client-centered, caring counsel ®; we treat every case like it's our closest family member's liberty that is at stake! We are committed to you, our client, above all else, at every stage of the litigation process. From our first encounter, you will leave with no doubt that we care deeply about your freedom, and we will fight to protect it!"

In this episode, we discuss:

- Serving indigent populations and underserved communities.

- Practicing what you're passionate about and turning that into what fulfills you.

- Establishing a new, meaningful, and collaborative opportunity out of every negative experience.

- Taking on fears to better serve the client and put them first over your own mental roadblocks.
