Description

Our popular series of programs on key aspects of trial, trial preparation, and litigation skills continues with Jones Day partners Tom Jackson and Mike Ginsberg, who discuss jury selection techniques and strategy, including a focus on using the jury selection process to start "selling" your case themes to the jury. Topics covered by Messrs. Jackson and Ginsberg, who have over 50 years of combined experience in litigation and have been teaching trial skills to Jones Day associates and others for more than 20 years, also include:
• methods of questioning so that you can determine which prospective jurors are most likely to be receptive to your client's perspective, and
• suggested ways of identifying potential juror biases.
