PRE-TRIAL

Focus Groups

We partner with local and national trial consultants that facilitate focus group research to test themes, evidence, and issues at law with visuals. Clients appreciate our ability to develop persuasive opening/closing presentations to argue both sides of a case to mock jurors. Strong opposing visual arguments allow for meaningful feedback to understand strengths, vulnerabilities, biases, and other useful information for the development of a winning case.

Mediations

The most underutilized yet powerful tool to drive a case to settlement is visuals in the mediation phase. Mediators love our presentations as it gives them the ability to digest volumes of information allowing them to quickly get up to speed on the merits of a case. This level of preparedness often makes opposing counsel think twice about going to trial. If trial is imminent, visuals at the mediation phase make pre-trial prep more focused and manageable.

ARBITRATION AND TRIAL

Experts

They may be experts in their field, but not many are experts in creating high-quality visuals. Our team breaks out complex information into clear, colorful images jurors can easily understand and remember. Medicine, biology, chemistry, engineering or accounting – we can depict any subject or data and its legal elements. Boost your expert’s credibility and leave the jury with a positive first and lasting impression.

Lay Witnesses

Visuals for use with lay witnesses testifying on the stand can be useful not only in educating the jury, but to ease anxiety so the witness has something familiar to focus on and strengthen their own recall in a stressful setting in-person or online.

Openings & Closings

We have prepared hundreds of opening and closing PowerPoint-style presentations that look nothing like run-of-the-mill PowerPoints. Combining creative communications skill with technology expertise, we brand your case and customize persuasive and engaging opening statements and closing arguments.

New Apps & Old School

Our visuals can be used for electronic presentations (Trial Director, PowerPoint, Keynote, Prezi & others) as well as “old school” poster boards. Our large format timelines are easily readable from the jury box, a conference room table, and on a virtual meeting screen. Left visible, our timelines act as a reminder for the fact-finder of key points throughout the entire proceeding.

Courtroom and Virtual Presentations

The key to a successful visual is not the technology alone, but the strategy behind it. We ensure the trial team receives the best technical and creative services to put on a winning case. Proceedings online demand more timely engagement with an unforgiving audience. Advanced technology can drive home important messages. Our team works closely with in-house and third-party technologists so that the litigators can focus on advocacy, not IT issues or reboots.

OUR VISUALS

Extraordinary

“I only wish that everybody would use Diane on the cases that I work on because she is so much better than so many of the people out there who play around with colors but they really don’t know what they’re doing. Go into a courtroom and look at different people who are using graphics, and you see the quality of Diane’s work, her conscientiousness, her ability to just not let the little details slip by but to figure out how to incorporate them, just the clarity of her work and the story that she can tell.”
