Brothers at law.

Safir Brothers Lawcast

Real talk on plaintiff-side personal injury and criminal defense from two brothers who live it. No script. No settlement.

The Case

What this show is

The premise is simple. Both brothers are trial lawyers. Gary sues insurance companies in Detroit. Rory tries injury cases in Tampa Bay, and defends people the state has charged. Two states, and the same dinner table growing up.

Every episode takes one question and works it to the end. How a claim gets valued. Why a carrier opens low. What a cross-examination is built from. What a record has to show before a jury believes it. Nothing is scripted and nobody is selling anything.

Sometimes a third lawyer sits in, and the talk turns to the parts of the job that stay out of the brochures. The file that should have been turned down. The witness who changed a verdict. The ruling one of them is still annoyed about.

Two kinds of listener. People with a claim of their own, who would rather understand the process before they sit across from an adjuster. And lawyers, who come for the shop talk. Insurance adjusters are welcome too. They will not enjoy it.

Full episodes run on YouTube. Shorts take a single question and answer it in about a minute. New episodes land on the docket as they are recorded.

Trial Lawyer · Michigan

Gary is a Detroit personal injury trial lawyer who fights for people hurt in car and motorcycle crashes, including the “soft tissue” whiplash, spine, and joint injuries insurers love to lowball. Admitted in Michigan and Ohio, he has recovered millions for clients, and when an insurance company won’t pay what a case is worth, he lets a jury tell them they’re wrong.
