Another reason why televised trials are so intriguing is the opportunity they provide for the public to witness the pursuit of justice. People have an inherent desire for fairness and accountability, and televised trials allow them to see firsthand how the legal system upholds these principles. Whether it's a murder trial or a high-stakes corporate lawsuit, viewers can observe the process of presenting evidence, cross-examination, and the deliberation of the jury. This transparency fosters a sense of trust in the legal system and reassures the public that justice is being served.
by Ken Lopez Founder/CEO A2L Consulting Some companies have justifiably built a reputation for extraordinary customer service. Ritz-Carlton is one of them, but not everyone has had the opportunity to test that reputation in real life. As it happens, I recently put Ritz-Carlton to the test while I stayed at the Ritz-Carlton in Maui, Hawaii. It’s a lovely place, and my wife and I chose the Club Level for our stay. But as can happen even at a Ritz-Carlton, some things went wrong. Actually, a lot of things went wrong. The club level was unexpectedly bought out by an unnamed VIP, and when my wife and I checked in for what was supposed to be our first real vacation without our triplets since our honeymoon in 2006, the front desk staff let us know that we would not be receiving the five meals per day and adult beverages associated with a Ritz-Carlton club level stay.
Jury consultants play a crucial role in ensuring that your witness is fully prepared for testimony. By leveraging their extensive experience in trial law, these consultants help your witness anticipate and tackle tough questions that may arise in the courtroom. This is particularly valuable in high-profile cases where media attention and public scrutiny can be overwhelming. With the guidance of a jury consultant, your witness can develop the confidence and poise necessary to deliver their testimony with utmost clarity and conviction.
Social media has had a profound impact on jury consulting and voir dire in recent years. With the widespread use of social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, potential jurors now have the ability to share their opinions and biases with the world more easily than ever before. This has created both opportunities and challenges for jury consultants, who must navigate the complex landscape of social media to identify potential jurors who may be biased or prejudiced.

by Ken Lopez Founder & CEO A2L Consulting Earlier this week, we wrote about the best blogs for litigators to follow. In addition, LinkedIn groups are a great place for discussions of all types. Very often, these groups are the first place that one can find new trends in the industry. The fact that a group does not cover your field of practice, incidentally, does not mean that there are not great discussions going on there.
by Ken Lopez Founder & CEO A2L Consulting These days, much of the best information available in any area of human endeavor is found on blogs. Litigation and trial topics are no exception. An excellent blog keeps readers up to date and interested in a subject far more effectively than a textbook or even a website. And most blogs are free of charge. Everyone should keep up with blogs in his or her own field. It’s a basic idea of staying abreast of what’s new in your profession. Here is a list of 14 blogs that will be of continuing interest to the trial lawyer, whether aspiring or accomplished. They deal with key issues of courtroom technology, trial tactics, evidence, and persuasion in a sprightly manner.
