Trial Consulting

Even if an attorney typically likes working alone, it is incredibly difficult to prepare a case, or a trial, by yourself. Not to mention, there are naturally things (i.e. blind spots) that you will miss without an outside perspective. My mission is to partner with lawyers and their clients to relieve their stress and prepare them to make the three most important decisions: settle or go to trial.

I combine decades of trial experience, +1,000 focus groups with AI-assisted analysis — reviewing focus group feedback, testimony, and case materials to help surface blind spots faster. Every visual, presentation, and strategy I deliver is still built by hand, from my own trial and focus group experience.

How I work with you:

Focus groups are the backbone of my consulting — but not for the reason most people assume. They don’t tell you what your case is “worth.” They tell you where it’s strong and where it’s weak.

That distinction matters. Once we know your case’s real strengths and vulnerabilities, we can build a strategy around them — reinforcing the markers that actually move a jury and shoring up the weak points before opposing counsel exploits them.

From there, it’s about persuasion: how information reaches a jury, not just what information you give them. That means paying attention to case themes and framing, sequencing, the role of visuals, and the broader brain science behind how people actually make decision about your case.

This strategy work runs through every piece of trial prep I assist with:

  • Case themes and framing
  • Jury selection
  • Opening statements
  • Direct and cross examination
  • Closing argument
  • Witness preparation
  • Demonstrative evidence and visuals

We can work together on all the trial, or pieces of it – but no matter how I help my goal is to be a team member, not just a vendor.
