<\/a><\/div>\n

In a courtroom, it isn\u2019t necessarily the attorney with the
\nbest facts who wins, but the attorney who best explains the relevance of those
\nfacts both to the case and <\/i>to the
\njurors.<\/p>\n

Certainly, you need solid evidence, but here we\u2019re talking
\nabout what you need to do to get the edge. What, given the usual state of
\naffairs by the time a case gets to court where both sides believe their
\nevidence is strong enough to prevail, can you do to give you the advantage over
\nyour opponent?<\/p>\n

Explain why.<\/b> Why does your
\ninterpretation of the facts make sense? Why should the jurors care that their
\nverdict favors your client? Why should this matter to the jurors? How
\ndoes it impact their lives (work, family, children, safety, etc.), preferably
\nin an immediate and direct way?<\/p>\n

Explain through your experts, your lay witnesses, and most
\nimportantly, your closing argument, and of course your opening to the degree
\nallowed.<\/p>\n

We invest in the personal, in that which strikes home.
\nThat\u2019s why stories have such an impact. They touch the personal. So too with
\nexplanations. Make your case matter, not just to your client, but to the
\njurors.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
