Full Throttle: The Journeys of a Litigator and Race Car Driver
Episode 64
Thursday, 22 January, 2026
Send us Fan MailControlled speed requires split-second decision-making, a complete presence in the moment, and an intimate understanding of risk. Many attorneys experience that in the courtroom, but what if you sought it out every weekend, pushing high-performance machines to their limits on some of the country's most legendary race circuits? Meet Roman Lifson, an accomplished trial lawyer and champion race car driver.Roman has carved out a unique niche in motorsports law while competing wheel-to-wheel in amateur racing across the country. He's spent decades mastering two entirely different forms of competition, discovering along the way that the lessons from one world directly inform the other. From learning to trust fellow competitors inches away at high speed to understanding when fighting serves the client and when it doesn't, Roman has built a practice—and a life—around the intersection of speed, strategy, and human connection.In this episode, Roman talks with Sticky Lawyers host John Reed about his various journeys: his family’s realization of the American Dream, his progression as a driver, and his evolution as a lawyer from warrior to counselor and relationship-builder. Oh, and why he feels safer driving 160 mph on a racetrack than fighting traffic on I-95
