The story of this case will never make the front page of Lawyers Weekly, but here goes…
Just hung up with a client…middle aged mom and wife; had a part-time job prior to her wreck; slowly getting back into her groove, but still BADLY in need of funds because of her injuries last year. Last evening before leaving the office, I went to the mat for her one more time with the adjuster, getting a promise to take my revised proposal to her claims manager. She did, and the claims manager agreed with my assessment and my demand, and so I had the happy duty to telling my client her “net” figure this morning. She is pleased, and very much grateful.
The point is this, I guess. It sure ain’t my biggest case, or even a “big” case, but it is this nice lady’s ONLY case. And that’s sometimes too easy to forget.

About Mike Daisley - Civil Litigation Attorney, Mediator, Writer, Licensed Lay Preacher (Episcopal Church, Diocese of North Carolina)
Mike Daisley is a civil litigation attorney and Certified Mediator in Charlotte, North Carolina, and owner and president of "DaisleyLegal" a virtual law firm focused on helping victims of drunk driving injuries and other careless individuals and corporations. He devotes a significant time of his practice as a mediator in North Carolina's Superior Courts, using his 35 years of litigation experience to counsel and assist opposing parties to resolve their disputes and lawsuits cooperatively, avoiding the high expenses and time commitments involved in going to trial.
In addition to his commitment to Civil Trial Advocacy and Alternative Dispute Resolution, Mike is also an avid writer, and has a wide array of interests outside of his legal practice, including stints as a columnist for The Charlotte Observer, political analyst for WCNC-TV and WBT Radio. Mike’s biggest passion outside the law is learning and writing about theology, and especially the role doubt plays in faith, the role faith plays (or should play) in politics, and (as he puts it) the “beauty and deep mystery” of the liturgy.
Mike is a lifelong Episcopalian, and often jokes that means "I am a raging agnostic at least two or three days a week.” In 2019, he was appointed by the Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of North Carolina as a licensed Lay Preacher in the Episcopal Church.
