Kim Savo Interviews Scott Glovsky on the Impact of Storytelling

Get to know Scott Glovsky with guest host Kim Savo. Scott discusses cases that helped change lives of thousands of people suffering from eating disorders and autism spectrum disorders. He then turns to the importance of storytelling and of integrating all the senses.Kim opens, “Scott has the biggest heart of just about any lawyer I’ve ever known. He fights in every case on behalf of ordinary people who have been harmed or injured by institutions that are bigger and more powerful than they are. In particular, he has a specialty in fighting against health companies that won’t provide medical coverage.”The award winning Law Offices of Scott Glovsky specializes in insurance bad faith, catastrophic personal injury &amp; health-related litigation. Scott Glovsky started the firm to help ordinary people suffering because of the negligent and bad acts of organizations and corporations. The firm’s cases have impacted millions of lives through forcing insurance companies to change their behavior – including their processes of reviewing requests for medically necessary treatment and their medical practices.Scott first discusses a case that taught him the power of caring and connecting. His client, a 26-year-old all-American girl who was close with her family and loved by everyone, had a mental illness – an eating disorder of anorexia and bulimia. She tried to free herself from her hurt, loneliness, pain, and feelings of powerlessness by controlling her food intake. At 68 pounds and needing a feeding tube to stay alive, she was hospitalized. Her insurance company kicked her out of the hospital and days later she committed suicide at home.Scott got to know his client through the unconditional and powerful love and pain of her father.  As they visited her grave and reenacted very painful scenes, he showed Scott tremendous kindness and trust by sharing this incredibly intimate and painful memory. “Part of what made this so meaningful and so special was that he was open with me, and honest with me, and trusted with me, and that developed such a bond between us that ultimately anyone around us could see that level of trust and connection, and we cried together.”As painful as reliving this ordeal was, the father’s goal was to spread the word about what happened to stop this from happening to others. Not only did they win the case and tell the story on Anderson Cooper 360, The Early Show, and in the pages of People Magazine and elsewhere, but Scott was awarded the Consumer Attorneys of California’s (CAOC) “Street Fighter of the Year” Award for his work on this case.Next Scott describes a group of cases he did on behalf of kids with autism spectrum disorders who were denied treatment of Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA) and speech therapy by their insurance companies. Another lawyer told Scott regarding one of the cases, "You're crazy, you're not going to win that case, and if you do you're going to have to go to the court of appeal, and it's going to take years, and the chances of you winning are slim." Scott felt he had to get involved. “I couldn’t see the situation and not try to help.” Scott was successful – he was instrumental in helping to get the insurance company to stop systemically denying ABA and speech therapy to children with autism spectrum disorders. This decision impacted 45,000 kids with this insurance company and provided a nearly $9.3 million dollar settlement for class members and autism research.“That case is probably the one I'm most proud of because we were able to really make a difference and hopefully changed the course of children’s lives, and their families’ lives, and at least be part of doing something meaningful.”Scott finishes by speaking about storytelling and the need to integrate all the senses. He says, “It's not just about what happened in the past, but how is the defendant acting in the trial, how are their lawyers treating your client, and how are they treating the witnesses?
