Unlock the Emotional Power of Your Cases

In the legal arena, effectively communicating the depth and impact of your client's experiences is crucial yet challenging. The nuanced emotions, daily challenges, and true extent of their ordeal risk being overshadowed by legal complexities, potentially diluting the strength of your case at the settlement table.

At Clear Eyed Media, led by three-time Emmy-nominated journalist Joe Douglass, we specialize in transforming these complex narratives into compelling visual stories. Our settlement documentaries and day-in-the-life videos are meticulously crafted to bring your clients' experiences into vivid focus, making their realities undeniable and deeply felt by juries, judges, insurance adjusters,  and mediators.

Peter Janci

 Partner, Crew Janci LLP

"I hired Joe and Clear Eyed Media to create a settlement demand video for a complex negligent security case. Joe was insightful, thorough, and a pleasure to work with. The final 20-minute video seamlessly combined body cam footage, deposition testimony, photos, documents, and custom footage with compelling narration. It received positive feedback from a respected mediator and was invaluable in achieving a favorable case resolution. The pricing was reasonable, and the process was smooth from start to finish. Highly recommend!"

Manny Batalla

Brother of Manslaughter Victim

"Joe's exceptional dedication to his profession and his profound empathy directly contributed to my family's journey towards finding closure. His careful and respectful handling of our story brought much-needed public awareness and played a crucial role in advancing the pursuit of justice. Joe's integrity as a journalist ensured that our voices were heard with dignity, while his exceptional communication skills engaged a broader audience, helping to galvanize community support. His impact on our lives goes beyond professional; it was deeply personal, providing a sense of justice and peace when we needed it most."

Derek Bachmann Marketing Specialist

​"During my time in the Northwest, Joe collaborated on several stories for me. His adeptness in posing challenging questions consistently elicited profound emotions from the individuals he interviewed.
​
I must highlight the pivotal role Joe played in reporting on my campaign to secure the release of my brother from a prison in Mexico. His reportage garnered the attention of our US senators, ultimately leading to my brother's release and our eventual reunion. Joe's contribution was instrumental in achieving this significant outcome."
