Knowing Why the Jury System Works Helps You Win

Presentation Details

A jury of ordinary citizens with unique perspectives and experiences are asked to unanimously decide the outcome of the most complex disputes. Jurors take their role seriously and focus closely on your client’s story.

Understanding how the jury system works—and how jurors learn and process information—helps you craft a compelling factual narrative that resonates. In this CLE session, a seasoned litigator shares his years of courtroom experience distilled into actionable steps, including how to empower the active jurors to advocate for your client during deliberations.
