JuriSense Litigation Consulting Services RSS

You learned the science and your experts believe it supports your case. You won your motions, convincing the judge to let you try your case. How much time have you spent thinking about how to convince laypersons -- the people who will actually decide -- that you should win? JuriSense specializes in complex litigation, teaching lawyers how to explain scientific evidence to jurors.

Tammy Metzger is the principal of JuriSense and assists lawyers with all aspects of their cases, including mock trial research, theme development, witness preparation, graphics, communication skills, voir dire and developing juror psychological evaluations.

JuriSense offers its services, free of charge, to select public causes, including scientists who seek assistance in explaining their work to decision makers, the press and other laypersons.

What People are Saying

Your paper is the best, most concise explanation of how to conduct jury selection. I gave it to all of my associates to read. Tom Girardi

You were right on the money. Jim Riley

You're very perceptive. You correctly predicted an unlikely foreperson and our two strongest jurors. Al Stewart

You were the highlight of the conference. Vicki Gilbreath, Harris Martin Publishing

Arlene Blum, a bestselling author and UC Berkeley biophysical chemist who testified before two California Assembly committees regarding AB 706, a bill to ban toxic fire retardants from furniture and bedding, said:

Your edit is amazingly helpful. I have to tell you that several renowned scientists and also some skilled lawyers in this field had already reviewed and commented on my testimony before you worked on it. Each improved it slightly, but your reorganization of the material made it orders of magnitude better. Thank you. Thank you.
