Developing A Successful Trial Strategy Begins With…

Determining what issues and questions jurors most want to know about and then crafting the most compelling communications in response.

Recognizing what is motivating juror decision making and then crafting the most effective responses for playing to the motivations.

Effective trial messaging begins with knowing what potential jurors think about your case...and revealing the motivation behind their reactions and questions.

Discovering the insights into what jurors find most troubling about a case and the root causes of why jurors feel that way is especially useful in voir dire and trial messaging.

What jurors express and what is really driving their decision-making are often very different things.

Effective messaging depends on knowing both. That knowledge is the surest way to develop strategies and craft communications to win the hearts and minds of the jury.
