Services Overview
When preparing for trial presentation, a trial services consultant can advise legal teams on best practices for preparing and exchanging exhibits. This includes programmatically endorsing exhibits with case and exhibit numbers, and once finalized, the consultant will populate and code the trial exhibit database.
The consultant will continue to update the database – replacing, redacting, removing, and marking admitted exhibits throughout the trial to ensure the appropriate versions are available in court.
Prior to, and during the trial, consultants can do “live” run-throughs of openings, closings, directs, and anticipated crosses with attorneys and witnesses.
During preparations, the consultant can offer anecdotal observations and mock “juror” perspectives.
At the conclusion of the trial, the trial services consultant will archive all of the trial data and provide it to the appropriate teams. Once back at the office, the consultant can also assist with any post-trial hearings and prepare a hyperlinked version of the post-trial brief as a courtesy submission to the court.
In addition, the trial services consultant can also assist in striking the war room, in addition to preparing and arranging for the return shipment of all case materials and equipment.
