Adrianos did not initially plan to become a lawyer, but after finishing law school, he decided to start his own practice rather than work for someone else. He met a mentor who took him under his wing and encouraged him to take on a car accident case, which ended up being a turning point where Adrianos gained trial experience and won an $80,000 verdict. This experience convinced Adrianos that he could succeed as a personal injury attorney. Adrianos decided to focus his practice on serving the Brazilian and Portuguese community in Los Angeles, as he saw a need that was not being met. His own family's experience immigrating to the US and facing challenges like language barriers and lack of support networks inspired him to help this underserved population. Adrianos works to build trust, provide education, and offer extra support services to his clients from this community. Visit Law Offices of Adrianos Facchetti here: https://facchettilaw.com/.

Adrianos Facchetti: So it wasn't like I was always planning on being a lawyer. In fact, when I had gone to law school, was probably the, I met like one lawyer until that point. But it was sort of a default position. I wasn't really sure what I wanted to do, and I wanted to sort of keep my options open. Then when I finished law school, just because of my background, my dad had started his own businesses. My brother started his own businesses. I think we were all just too stubborn to work for somebody else that would have made a horrible employee. And so I knew I wanted to start my own thing. And so when I started out, I had no connections, nothing. My parents had come from Brazil and Argentina. And so it wasn't like I had, you know, a silver spoon. My mouth or any kind of connections. And then I figured out that I needed to get business, right? And so I had met a mentor about two years in, and I had no idea what I was doing. And he said to me, look, I'm going to sort of take you under my wing. I'm going to teach you what to do. I said, great. And we started doing kind of litigation. So real estate litigation, business litigation, whatever you can think of. And then one day, he says to me, we're going to do a car accident case. And I said, I'm not sure I want to do that, George. And he says, we are going to do it. So I said, okay, fine. So long story short, we're working on this case, and we were like the fourth attorneys in the case, so it's not a good case. And he says the policy limits are $25,000 and the offer is $7,500. And I'm calculating that that's about 200 bucks in my pocket, which was like a million dollars for me. I needed the money badly. said, yeah. He says, no, we're going to go to trial.
