Her jury consultant work includes voir dire strategy, focus groups, mock trials, witness preparation, jury selection, supplemental jury questionnaires, and post-trial juror interviews and it is outstanding. I would not go to trial without her.”

“You earned your fee today! Both of our witnesses did a superb job. In fact one of them essentially conducted a clinic on how to be a credible and convincing witness. Both gave a large part of the credit to your work with them.”
