What happens when the system meant to protect the public fails?

In this compelling episode of See You In Court, hosts Robin Frazer Clark and Lester Tate sit down with veteran Georgia trial lawyer and mediator Nick Moraitakis to discuss one of the most sobering chapters in Atlanta’s legal history. From an unwritten drug arrest quota to a tragic police raid that ended in the death of an innocent woman, Nick walks us through how civil litigation uncovered planted evidence, false affidavits, and systemic misconduct.

Nick’s career spans decades in Georgia courtrooms. After beginning as a defense lawyer representing corporations and insurance companies, he transitioned to representing individuals and families harmed by negligence, medical malpractice, trucking accidents, product liability, and other wrongful acts. He has tried dozens of cases to verdict, served in the Georgia General Assembly, and now devotes his practice fully to mediation. His perspective is grounded in experience on both sides of the courtroom.

In this conversation, we explore:
• The real-world consequences of unchecked power
• How civil lawsuits expose facts that might otherwise remain hidden
• The role of courageous lawyers in protecting constitutional rights
• Why the civil justice system remains essential to accountability

Rather than attacking Big Law, the group is focused on confronting the real issue: ongoing assaults on the rule of law and the chilling effect those pressures create across the legal profession.
