Speaker Panel:
William D. Sanders, Counsel
Post Polak, P.A.
William D. Sanders draws upon his 40 years of experience working with, and against, the leading attorneys in this state, to find creative solutions to our clients’ problems. Mr. Sanders takes a holistic approach to the conduct of litigation. Reflexive, boilerplate pleadings and discovery objections are not in his vocabulary. He understands that communicating real positions to judges and adversaries projects strength and that rote responses project weakness. Mr. Sanders looks for the ‘touchpoints’ in the relationships between not only the parties, but parties and their counsel and insurers that often drive the conduct of litigation and resistance to case resolution. Mr. Sanders then pursues strategies to expose/put pressure on those relationships in order to focus the parties on how their interests are best served/protected by resolutions that provide the best, most cost-effective case resolution for our clients.
