あらすじ・解説
There are few things more stressful as a trial attorney than the jury selection process.
Even if you’re confident in your case, your arguments have been tested and refined, and every piece of evidence is on your side, picking jurors is a stark reminder that so much is out of your control.
And because the ways in which all of us receive and retain information is changing, it’s up to attorneys to adapt the ways in which they approach jurors.
From the effects of polarization,the expectations around evidence, and generally shorter attention spans, there is so much to unpack about the way juries continue to evolve.
Thankfully, I’m joined by Jury Consultant and Strategic Advisor, Dr. Christina Marinakis to help me do just that.
With over 20 years of experience, Dr. Marinakis is the CEO and Founder of Immersion Legal which specialize in jury research, jury study, and applied practice in law and psychology.
Dr. Marinakis has assisted trial counsel with jury selection and daily trial monitoring across the country on some of the most substantial cases of our time, including her assistance to the prosecution with jury selection in State of Minnesota v. Derek Chauvin for the murder of George Floyd.
This is definitely a conversation for the trial attorneys out there, but anyone with a passing curiosity in jury-trials will enjoy this peek behind the curtain.
Enjoy the show.
