About the bootcamp

TBI cases are some of the most misunderstood—and aggressively defended—claims in PI litigation. In this Bootcamp, Sagi Shaked will guide you through every phase of handling a TBI case, from recognizing the injury and overcoming the “invisible injury” defense to building a powerful damages presentation that makes jurors care. You’ll learn how to identify a TBI early, navigate the complex medical landscape, counter the insurance industry’s common tactics, and present cognitive and emotional injuries in a way that resonates. Alongside this strategy and substance training, Dan Ambrose will help you perfect your delivery—coaching you on how to present technical content with clarity and keep jurors engaged. This can be especially difficult for TBI cases because the injuries aren’t always visible. Together, Sagi and Dan's their combined approach will help you build and present TBI cases with power and precision so you can win.

I believe that participating in the TLU bootcamps has been the single most beneficial investment that I have made in myself as a trial lawyer. It provides a one-of-a-kind opportunity to work on everything from jury connection to storytelling within the courtroom and the confines of a case. I don't believe that the skills taught in this program are available anywhere else, and any lawyer who is serious about trial work MUST make this investment in yourself."

"This training will save you years of struggle and put you light years ahead of the defense. If you're open-minded about the role voir dire can play at trial and committed to doing the work it takes to get comfortable in the discomfort of training for trial, you may come out a different person and without question will leave a much better trial lawyer.”

What Strategies You'll Gain from Sagi Shaked:

TBI cases are uniquely complex. They require lawyers to recognize subtle symptoms, navigate advanced medical diagnostics, and tell a story that makes jurors feel the life-changing impact of an injury they can’t see. Sagi will take you through his step-by-step framework for evaluating, building, and winning TBI cases.

You’ll learn:

How to identify the signs of a traumatic brain injury – Know what to look for in early reports, witness statements, and client interviews—even when the ER missed it.

The importance of early action – Secure critical evidence such as 911 calls, surveillance, and early imaging before it disappears.

Understanding the medicine – Learn how to read TBI-related records, interpret advanced scans like DTI and fMRI, and work with specialists who can explain invisible injuries.

Common defense tactics and how to overcome them – Tackle arguments about malingering, minor impacts, and “normal” MRIs head-on with functional evidence and lay testimony.

How to prove damages in cases where the client “looks fine” – Use before-and-after witnesses, vocational experts, and life care planners to translate symptoms into jury-impactful losses.

Trial and settlement strategy for TBI cases – Know how to package your case for mediation, present your strongest themes at trial, and conduct voir dire that uncovers juror bias against invisible injuries.

What Skills You'll Acquire from Dan Ambrose:

In TBI cases where much of the harm is invisible and highly technical, your delivery can determine how the jury truly sees and feels your plaintiff's injuries. Dan will coach you a set of wordless persuasion techniques designed to make your arguments land, your client’s experience resonate, and your presence feel credible and persuasive from voir dire to verdict.

You’ll learn:

How to connect with every juror in the room – Use eye contact and micro-connections to build one-on-one rapport, so jurors feel personally engaged and emotionally invested in your case.

Controlling cadence and vocal rhythm – Slow down your speech, use strategic pauses, and shift inflection to help jurors process dense medical content and understand the gravity of what you're saying.

Purposeful hand movement and body control – Reinforce key points with intentional gestures and positioning to frame your story.

Spatial storytelling and demonstrative alignment – Learn how to physically create “space” in the courtroom that anchors the injury, the life before, and the life after—making the client’s journey tangible.

Using inclusive language and economy of words – Eliminate filler, use present-tense phrasing, and speak with precision to build clarity and authority.

Listening as a performance skill – Demonstrate active listening when interacting with witnesses or jurors, helping reinforce your role as a trustworthy guide through a complex case.

Dan’s coaching ensures that your delivery supports the complexity of your case, helping jurors follow your logic, feel your client’s loss, and trust you as the one to make it right.

Dan Ambrose

Trial Lawyers University

I grew up in Birmingham, MI. I am the youngest of eight children and attended an all-boys catholic school my whole life until I went to college at the University of Michigan. I went to night school at Detroit College of Law. My dad, my uncle, two of my brothers, and sister were lawyers. My first job was cutting lawns at age 10. I started working for my brother as a house painter at age 12. When I was 16 I started my own painting business and continued throughout high school, college, and law school, and a few years after until I was 32. I practiced criminal defense for eighteen years in Michigan until ten years ago when my roommate from the Trial Lawyers College, Nick Rowley, encouraged me to move to LA to become a PI lawyer. The California Bar took me four tries. I moved to Las Vegas this past March. I have recently taken up pickle ball, skiing and golf. I also think I'm competitive at connect four, backgammon, chess, and ping pong.
