DescriptionOne of the most important elements of any jury trial starts well before opening statements. Jury selection can make or break a trial and to get the jury you want, preparation is key. This CLE course will explain how to prepare for jury selection, what to look for in potential jurors, research, and how to question them. The course will also explain strategies for appealing to the jury, even when that jury is not the one you would have wanted. Ethical consideration in dealing with jurors as well as case preparation and tips for dealing with judges, will also be discussed.
