Stories that get results (examples of my work):

Why these examples?

Most of my legal video work is used in confidential mediation and can’t be shown publicly. These public-facing stories reflect the same reporting-driven, narrative approach I use in settlement documentaries — stories that have helped drive real legal outcomes.

I produced this TV report as a journalist in one day about a woman's death behind bars. It captures the facts and gut-wrenching testimony that led to a $650,000 settlement.

When insurers denied autism therapy, this family fought back, and the state only stepped in after my investigation. A public example of the legal storytelling I now do for attorneys.

A look at my background as a journalist and how I now use those same storytelling skills to help attorneys build stronger cases through settlement documentaries and day-in-the-life videos.

Testimonials:

Peter Janci

Partner, Crew Janci LLP

"I hired Joe and Clear Eyed Media to create a settlement demand video for a complex negligent security case. Joe was insightful, thorough, and a pleasure to work with. The final 20-minute video seamlessly combined body cam footage, deposition testimony, photos, documents, and custom footage with compelling narration. It received positive feedback from a respected mediator and was invaluable in achieving a favorable case resolution. The pricing was reasonable, and the process was smooth from start to finish. Highly recommend!"

Manny Batalla

Brother of Manslaughter Victim

"Joe's exceptional dedication to his profession and his profound empathy directly contributed to my family's journey towards finding closure. His careful and respectful handling of our story brought much-needed public awareness and played a crucial role in advancing the pursuit of justice. Joe's integrity as a journalist ensured that our voices were heard with dignity, while his exceptional communication skills engaged a broader audience, helping to galvanize community support. His impact on our lives goes beyond professional; it was deeply personal, providing a sense of justice and peace when we needed it most."

Derek Bachmann Marketing Specialist

"During my time in the Northwest, Joe collaborated on several stories for me. His adeptness in posing challenging questions consistently elicited profound emotions from the individuals he interviewed.

I must highlight the pivotal role Joe played in reporting on my campaign to secure the release of my brother from a prison in Mexico. His reportage garnered the attention of our US senators, ultimately leading to my brother's release and our eventual reunion. Joe's contribution was instrumental in achieving this significant outcome."
