Trial Strategy

I will help you develop a trial strategy that encompasses the aspects of your case that may be unpalatable, while emphasizing those that will help you to win. Often as attorneys we are too wedded to the pure “legal” theory and do not take into account the emotional subtext of the case. As one of the most successful trial lawyers I can improve your courtroom tactics and, when necessary, help you manage the 'court of public opinion' via the 24 hour news cycle.

Jury Selection

I will help you create a jury selection strategy and design a set of questions that will avoid selecting the one (or worse, two) juror(s) with experience or a bias inimical to your case, a fatal result.. I will help you shape a comprehensive voir dire strategy to focus on evaluative criteria to select or exclude potential jurors by evoking substantive and candid answers through questions designed to elicit open and honest answers.
