Trial Director Helps A2L's Trial Technicians Make Litigators Look Like Expert Courtroom Directors
We believe the courtroom presentation softare package TrialDirector has a place in any trial where at least 50 documents will be used. Using TrialDirector means potentially having millions of documents a click away and that the presentation of those documents will be compelling and interactive. Using TrialDirector means looking polished and in control of your trial presentation. A2L Consulting supports TrialDirector and has full time staff who are expert in its use - we call these staffers, trial technicians.
Indata's TrialDirector trial presentation software has held a majority of the trial presentation market share for more than 10 years. First released in 1996, TrialDirector has emerged as the go-to standard for serious trial technicians operating in the nation's courtrooms. A2L Consulting embraced the use of TrialDirector while most demonstrative evidence was presented as traditional foam core boards.
Today, TrialDirector is usually paired with PowerPoint, scale models, the occasional printed large format foam core trial board and other specialty software to make a complete trial presentation possible. In cases where budget allows, trial teams rely on trial technicians or hot-seat operators to run TrialDirector and PowerPoint and make sure that the trial technology presentation is smooth.
