Strategic Case
Analysis. Regardless of the size of your case, we
first review key pleadings and pertinent exhibits to identify from a juror's
perspective the strengths and weaknesses of the evidence, the law and case theories. Based
on this analysis, we can develop a jury research project specific to the needs of your
case which will test the case theories, witnesses and evidence. Alternatively, if the case
does not warrant original research, we use the analysis to develop voir dire questions and
jury profiles.
Substantive
Research Projects. Community
surveys, focus group discussions and mock trials provide insights into likely juror
reaction to case theories, demonstrative evidence and witnesses. Our analysis of the
research finding supplies trial attorneys with more information relevant to case strategy,
pre-trial motions, voir dire and jury selection.

Witness
Preparation. Whether the
witness is a layperson or technical expert, we can assist counsel prepare him or her for
testimony through mock direct and cross examination exercises
designed to ease witness anxiety, correct delivery problems and improve juror
comprehension of the testimony.
Voir Dire &
Jury Selection. We use the
materials developed through the case analysis and substantive research projects to prepare
jury profiles, voir dire questions and pre-trial juror questionnaires. We also work with
you during the actual jury selection process to provide information on the jurors being
questioned.
Trial
Observation. After jury
selection, we are available to participate in the courtroom as trained observers during
the entire trial, or for key parts of the trial. We provide immediate and continuous
feedback and analysis of how the jury is responding to the case.
Post-trial
Interviews. We conduct
post-trial interviews that may furnish you with information for developing strategies for
retrying a particular case or for conducting other trials in which the same witnesses or
types evidence may be presented, where permitted by local rules.
Demonstrative
Evidence. There is an old
saying, a picture is worth a thousand words. Exhibits, charts, models,
animations and Power Point presentations are often more persuasive than the best witness.
We work with you and a team of experts to design graphics and other courtroom exhibits
that will clearly communicate your message and case theme to the jury.
