The legal community is set to gain invaluable insights from Christy Crowe Childers, one of the first women in the United States to achieve board certification in trucking accident law, at the upcoming 'Winning Truck Wreck Cases' seminar. Her presentation will introduce the Damages House model, a novel approach designed to simplify the complex process of quantifying intangible damages for judges, jurors, and clients alike. This model employs the metaphor of a house's rooms to categorize and associate damages, enhancing the clarity and impact of client testimonies.
The seminar, scheduled for August 4, 2025, in Noblesville, Indiana, is a collaborative effort by the Indiana Trial Lawyers Association and organized by David W. Craig and Scott A. Faultless, both esteemed figures in truck accident law. Childers' participation underscores the event's significance in advancing legal strategies and fostering professional growth within the field.
Beyond her contributions to legal methodology, Childers is a co-founder of the Sisterhood of the 8, a non-profit aimed at empowering women in the trucking and transportation industry and trial law. The organization's initiatives, including the annual Mother Truckers Rally, highlight the importance of diversity, education, and safety in the profession. The 'Winning Truck Wreck Cases' seminar represents a critical opportunity for legal professionals to refine their skills and adopt innovative approaches to litigation, with Childers' Damages House model poised to set a new standard in the representation of intangible damages.
