About
Most people are afraid to admit the role of luck in their lives. It feels better to be "self-made" - the kind of person who boldly declares that if you drop them in the middle of New York, penniless and naked, they'll emerge a millionaire thirty days later.
Nothing could be further from the truth.
John Morgan is not afraid to acknowledge the tremendous role luck has played in his life. There's been plenty of good - like deciding to attend Mass on a whim and meeting the love of his life - and plenty of bad - like being raised by an alcoholic father who couldn't keep a job. But the bundle of good and bad luck we inherit doesn't mean we're helpless.
This book will show you how to find luck, get return on luck, enhance luck, and turn bad luck into good luck.
Unflinching, honest, and sometimes raw, Life is Luck looks at the remarkable life of the man who built the largest personal injury law firm in American history, along with an enterprise of attractions, hotels, apartment buildings, and shopping centers.
John Morgan's multi-billion-dollar legal empire was born from a profound family tragedy. While John was in college, his brother Tim was paralyzed in a workplace incident at Walt Disney World. Chewed up by the legal system built to protect corporate giants, the Morgan family faced devastating injustice. In response, John vowed to spend his life leveling the playing field.
In 1988, John and his wife, Ultima, founded Morgan & Morgan. Driven by the singular mission "For The People," John scaled the practice into America's largest injury law firm. Today, the firm employs over 1,100 attorneys and has recovered more than $30 billion for over 700,000 clients, routinely taking on global titans like Google, BP, and Big Pharma.
Beyond the courtroom, John is the author of You Can't Teach Hungry and You Can't Teach Vision, which detail his unfiltered philosophy on business, risk, and building a ubiquitous brand. He is also a fierce civic advocate who spearheaded and largely funded successful Florida ballot initiatives to legalize medical marijuana and raise the minimum wage to $15. Alongside Ultima, he directs widespread philanthropic efforts, including the Morgan & Morgan Hunger Relief Center and the Harbor House Domestic Abuse Center.
