Building a Case in a Virtual Environment
Using Technology To Bring People Together
Combining technology with the most effective jury consultants in the industry.
We are innovating the industry. Using virtual technology like video remote meetings with document-sharing capabilities, a focus group can proceed remotely and quickly in a cost-efficient manner. Improve the story of your case and effectiveness of your exhibits by testing them with a real group of people. Get results instantly—without even leaving the comfort of your home or office. Use technology to take your firm to the next level. Enter the real courtroom with data-driven confidence and see the results in your verdicts.
We can also perform traditional online trial surveys using large sample sizes, which can be useful for developing jury selection profiles and testing the impact of a specific piece of evidence or argument.
