Against the Odds: The Samurai Lawyer (Chad Flores) | Ep. 52
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Chad Flores isn’t your typical lawyer. After starting in a big law firm, he carved his own path as a one-man appellate specialist—arguably a modern-day “samurai” of the courtroom.
In this episode, Chad shares how personal crucibles—from caring for his mother after a life-changing accident to navigating early career challenges—shaped his approach to law, life, and adventure. Hear the story of a scrappy Texan who turned hardship into craft, discipline, and a love for the extraordinary.
