Successfully trying a construction case to a jury requires thoughtful selection of a jury, effective utilization of technology and preparation of expert testimony that is utilized persuasively. Trial counsel who utilize and complete these tasks effectively have an excellent opportunity to prevail at trial.

When it comes to jury selection, trial counsel cannot wait until the eve of trial to think about the composition of a jury. Nor can trial counsel walk into voir dire without knowing all of the rules for jury selection, which may be unique to that specific tribunal. That may sound easy, but both are critical to complete effectively. Remember preparation and opportunity in jury selection can lead to success in the identification of jurors inclined to find your case attractive.
