Jimmy Lingg
Prior to meeting Mike, Jimmy was an Apple-certified instructor, an AVID-authorized trainer, and a film instructor at The Sheffield Institute.
In 2008, Mike found himself faced with an audio issue for a hugely important video settlement presentation that he just couldn’t seem to correct. A call to a TV producer that Mike knew led him to Jimmy. Mike met with Jimmy, described the problem, and gave Jimmy the files. Jimmy fixed the problem and saved the day. They quickly became friends and shortly thereafter, Mike recruited Jimmy to join MGM.
Jimmy quickly learned the ropes of trial presentation and within months of joining the team, coupled with his knowledge of video editing and visual storytelling, Jimmy became a terrific trial technician. As we quickly discovered, he brought a natural calm to the courtroom that had a way of rubbing off on everyone around him. No matter how hot the hotseat gets, Jimmy never loses his cool.
As MGM’s media director, Jimmy produces all of our video content, and because he can edit so quickly, he’s able to include our clients in the process. This ability makes us more efficient while delivering a superior product. Jimmy’s also become an expert drone pilot, which has come in handy for some of our environmental cases. When unexpected needs call for unexpected approaches, Jimmy will find the solution.
