Table of Contents
Every trial
attorney, whether for the plaintiff or defense, is faced with
the task of persuading the jury to interpret evidence that will
either acquit or convict the accused. In order to do this, attorneys
must hold the juror’s attention, present the evidence in
an understandable manner and make the juror see their side of
the story. Demonstrative evidence is often used to accomplish
these tasks. But what should the demonstrative evidence include?
If it is too technical, there’s a chance the jury will not
understand it. If it doesn’t include the right information,
there’s a chance the jury will forget it.
Demonstrative
Evidence for Complex Litigation: A Practical Guide is a helpful
resource that will provide you with quick, easy to understand
tips on how to use demonstrative evidence and what should be included
in your presentation. This is a great guide for the new trial
attorney or anyone who wants to sharpen their skills.
Topics
include
• developing strategy
• design considerations
• working with demonstrative evidence developers
• and expert witness and demonstrative evidence
