Be the Human in the Courtroom, Not the Lawyer, with Randi McGinn

“Liar, cheat, ambulance-chaser.” If you ask people what they think of lawyers, those pejoratives are often high on the list.

“Trial Work Wasn’t What I Wanted. It’s What I Need,” with Rich Schoenberger

When his dad was diagnosed with cancer at age 53, Rich Schoenberger [https://www.walkuplawoffice.com/attorneys/richard-h-schoenberger/] was unsure about his future. He and his dad had a heart-to-heart. He might want to be a lawyer, he said. “What’s the best place to learn how to be a trial lawyer?” his father asked. “I have no idea.” “Well, why don’t you find out?” Some four decades later, Rich is a leading plaintiffs’ attorney and member of the “big four” invitation-only trial organizations. Reflecting on that formative conversation with his father, he tells host Kevin Morrison [https://altairlaw.com/j-kevin-morrison] that “for me, trial work wasn't what I wanted to do. It's what I need to do.” Fresh from securing a $26 million verdict in a complex products case, Rich shares tips on closing argument, jury selection, and efficiency.

You Don’t Need to Guess at Most Trial Questions, with John Campbell

The traditional way to study juror behavior is with a focus group of 10 or 12 mock jurors. Multiply that by 25 or 30, and you have big data: a technique that studies how 300 or 400 people would evaluate a case. The idea is that a large sample can reveal what’s likely to occur in a case and why. John Campbell [https://www.campbelllawllc.com/the-team/], a pioneer in the field of big data who co-authored the groundbreaking book “JuryBall [https://www.juryball.com/],” visits host Kevin Morrison [https://altairlaw.com/j-kevin-morrison] to unpack his insights from studying more than 1,300 civil cases. Tune in to hear what big data says about three key factors at trial: credibility, personality, and stereotypes.
