Have you ever made a change in your day-to-day life based on a case you've worked on?

Last week, we noted how Seattle-based food-safety lawyer Bill Marler has decided to avoid certain foods based on what he’s learned representing victims of food-poisoning outbreaks. (Among them? Sprouts, raw oysters and prewashed lettuce.)
So this week, we thought we’d put this question to you: Have you ever made a change in your day-to-day life based on a case you’ve worked on? Has a medical malpractice case made you wary of certain surgical procedures? Has a criminal or privacy case prompted you to take more measures to protect your personal safety or private identification information? Has a divorce or custody case affected your feelings about marriage and children?
Answer in the comments.
Read the answers to last week’s question: Do you enjoy networking? Or does it make you feel slimy?
Featured answer:
Posted by Judie: “Networking in the legal profession is a way to get to know and learn from each other so we can be better lawyers and serve the needs of our clients and community. It is the way we effect change and benefit each other. If one approaches networking as a way to get something from other people without any genuine interest in getting to know your fellow lawyers or humans, I can see how that might feel slimy.”
