Lawyers & Libations

Episode 34: Small Firms/Big Rewards ft. Zach Shewmaker

Grab a drink and settle in — this week on Lawyers & Libations, we’re joined by one of Georgia’s most respected trial lawyers: Bruce Hagen, founding partner of Hagen Rosskopf LLC and known across the state as “The People’s Lawyer.”

Bruce shares stories from a career spanning nearly four decades, including 200+ civil trials, major verdicts that changed clients’ lives, and how he built a powerhouse personal-injury practice the old-school way: one referral and one relationship at a time.

We dive into his advocacy for Georgia's cycling community through Bike Law Georgia, his work with legislators to improve safety for cyclists and pedestrians, and his mission to educate riders, drivers, and law enforcement. Bruce also opens up about mentoring the next generation of attorneys, co-authoring a nationally used legal textbook, and hosting his weekly 680 The Fan podcast “Where Sports Meets The Law.”

Whether you’re a lawyer, cyclist, small business owner, or someone who loves a good courtroom story — this is a conversation you’ll want to hear.
