The Ruthlessly Efficient Trial: How to Shorten the Plaintiff’s Case & WIN

Recorded on 20260928
Presented by:  Karen Koehler,

The fastest way to lose a jury’s interest is by putting on a slow case. We have been working up to this day for years. Have amassed witnesses and evidence. Created diagrams. Drafted scripts. Taken depositions. Plotted out how cross exam will go.

The case has been hard fought. Settlement is not happening. We are ready for battle. With every single piece of data in its proper place. But now that we are in trial our priority is to persuade a jury of our client’s peers.

And given the technology age that we are in – we cannot rely on over preparation to win the day. Communication must be clear succinct and immediate. Data must be instantly digestible. Above all the jury expects the show to be a good one. Especially because it involves real life.

This seminar is focused on how to help trial lawyers ruthlessly edit clients’ cases to better resonate with today’s impatient juries.
