An attorney for actress Gwyneth Paltrow told jurors during his opening statements he thought the ski crash his client is being sued for is “b.s.†Paltrow and skier Terry Sanderson collided on a Utah mountain in 2016. The plaintiff claims Paltrow was skiing recklessly.

I thought that real life was like Suits 😅 I was so wrong, this is just painful to watch ! These lawyers 🫣
after seeing Depp's lawyers did their things in the court, I falsely assumed all lawyers were confident and fluent in Communication
I take back my comment that her lawyer is terrible at presentations. He had a slow start in my opinion but a strong finish.
If I ever get a lawyer I'm going to make them tell me a story to determine whether they can explain something competently to me.
I don't doubt his experience but he could have rehearsed this more because he's losing his place all the time
I can understand why someone with Paltrow’s wealth would be wary that people would take advantage of her. That said, it’s clear she ran into the guy. Acting like nothing happened, refusing to even acknowledge what she did, and then LYING out of spite (and likely an entitlement complex) is just wrong. I would have hoped that someone who has been as blessed as she has in this world, would want to help the person they’ve unintentionally hurt.
It's funny how reading through these comments every single one mentions, lawyers conduct, boring, insensitive towards Terry. See, this is the problem with jurors already making decisions based on an opening statement and judging Gwyneth on her past behaviors and her conduct of how she was portrayed by the plaintiffs lawyer. Now, everything changes after hearing Terry and his credibility, his deposition, witnesses factoring all of past injuries prior to his ski accident. Listen, I love Taylor Swift too and no way will she ever conduct that way to an injured person but doesn't mean that one day she may always be right because she's America's Sweetheart.
God these opening statements are just the worst. Gp can afford better cant she?
His fees are high
Is he high maybe??
Is this a joke? Did these atty's just become aware that they were giving opening statements the day before they were giving them??
This is utter incompetence! Gwyneth Paltrow's legal team looks like they've never tried a case in their life. Johnny's Depp's team were rock stars. This team is a mess!
Steve Owens and Rev. Jim Baker were separated at birth.
We just did!!!
She’s ticked off????
‘Suddenly she hears – she sees 2 skis coming between her’. OMG😳😳😳🙄🙄🙄
Paltrows attorney slipped up and actually admitted that she hit the doctor. 🙄
I am a law student and always thought i wouldn’t do well in litigation in the courtroom, but I hope i could do better this! And for the amount of money they are getting is insane. I have to believe that GP is regretting her choice in lawyer. I think his arrogance is off putting and he is not relatable.
The plantiff should be ordered to be in court, if he can travel the world & even Bungie jump, he should be in court. The reason he is not there, is he'll crash in court like he did that day!
His previous history, & type of brain damage could not happen in this incident. He is lying for the big $$$, when he found out Who the incident involved….
He should be in court & he should should have to testify & be cross examined….
Not aging well
Paltrow will win, without question. The lone witness is clearly lying and will fall apart in cross-examination. His BS story is not and will not match the others at the scene.
If he slammed into her, she should be the one with broken ribs from the back, a concussion or minimum a whiplash injury.
I think Terry Sanderson may have blacked out or had a medical incident while skiing into Gwyneth Paltrow. This may explain the groaning. His interpretation of "being skied into" may be rooted from feeling fear during a medical incident or with having a collision or accident. People can be in the mindset of blame when feeling fear. The definition of recklessness in this case is thought provoking. When I hear the words "reckless skiing", I think speed and twisting back and forth, and cutting people off which is risky behaviour to self and others. That is not the case here. The plaintiff is saying that she was reckless due to looking off to the side behind her and then presumably banging into him as a result. Isn't it normal to have quick glances to the side or a little bit back when going slow and stopping? I would think that to be an instinctive response. Although, wearing all the ski gear may make that difficult to do. A skier would see what is in front of them. If Gwyneth Paltrow collided with him, his injuries would be to the back or side depending on the direction of the collision. Given the low speed, they were gliding together, how they fell is really the cause of any injury, and the impact would be low which leads me to think that given Terry Sanderson's age, his bones were fragile and prone to breaking. This happens when bone density is lost as we age. Gwyneth Paltrow had pain to the back and needed treatment, a massage. This is consistent with being skied into from behind. Her knee was also injured from the fall to the side due to do it being stretched. Which is also consistent with being in front and being pushed from behind during the fall. It also makes sense that Terry Sanderson's ribs would break when he fell into Gwyneth Paltrow's back. If he was in front, then it didn't take much force for his ribs to break when he fell onto his side and front (if that is what he claims, I did not listen to his description of the events so I do not know where the breaks were). What speed were they going? I would think speed would equate to the level of injuries.
I have met people with brain injuries. It can change their personality. I think this is important for this case. I have witnessed anger, frustration, and odd behaviour from brain injury victims to the point where I did not feel safe or that I could trust being around the person. There would be moments of forgetfulness, and relentless pursuit of making a point, mood changes, extensive and unhealthy criticism, behaviour that made me uncomfortable to the point where I avoided one person in particular.
This guy sounds like a major goof
Paltrow's attorney looks like a failed Bill Gates impersonator (not from poor ability, just due to poor demand for Bill Gates impersonators)
Hopefully she hires a better appellant attorney.
he doesnt seem well prepared for presenting this scenario..seems already exhausted poor guy. i do believe all the health issues prior to the accident do influence the fall whoever is responsible of it..
WTF, the guy wants 3 mil, which is NOTHING to her, and instead of just paying him for what she did, she wants to put her WHOLE family thru this? She has to be an extremely selfish person. I don't even need to know anymore about the case.
I am sure she wanted a local attorney to defend her. This guy might be too local.
wtf im like "the shield" lady liberty??? what he say…..lol
What in the mother FK did I just watch. Did this attorney stroke out before his remarks. Sweet Jesus That was painful.
Paltrow's business is based on her image. This trial is hurting her image. Why on earth would she not have settled out of court? The $300K being asked for can't be worth what this is doing to her image.
Objection, boring!
5:44 “Oddly the daughter is the same age as the daughter and the son…†What does this matter? 🤣
Right on Christensen report it says, ‘I didn’t see it’, referring to the crash.
She has all the money to get really good lawyers and this is who she picks???? Lol. She should have just settled out of court. She is going to have to sell a lot of vagina candles to pay the 3 million. What on earth does this have to do with her deceased father and her kids making memories on fancy ski vacations. Lol. It's like he is working for the prosecution.
These lawyers have got to be two of the most incompetent amateurs. Cringe!!!
HER LAWYER IS A LIAR WOWOWOWOWOW
An embarrassment to the judicial system.
Steve Owen's performance is just plain awful.
