Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Turning Client Pain Into Courtroom Strength, with Jesse Wilson
Q: When is it appropriate to keep the client off the stand during trial?
In brain injury or similar cases, the client may be kept off the stand to avoid rehearsed performance, while the jurors are shown the client via carefully crafted questions and demonstrations that reveal authenticity.
Turning Client Pain Into Courtroom Strength, with Jesse Wilson
Q: Tell us what victim to victor means in practice in jury selection.
It's about priming jurors to see the client beyond their pain and guiding them to recognize strength, hope, and joy as the core of the case, which then informs all subsequent openings and cross-examinations.
Win the PI Game Without the Office, with Jarrett Stone
Q: What was the biggest shift that enabled you to go solo and stay profitable?
Pivoting to a virtual, office-free model and relying on case flow and referrals instead of a traditional office, which dramatically reduced overhead and increased margins.
Why 1,200 Digital Jurors Are Better than Human Ones, with Robert Hirschhorn and Lisa Blue
Q: How do you see AI changing jury selection in the long term?
AI will augment but not replace human judgment, with a distinction between data-driven survey/focus-group work and instinct-driven consultant work; over time, AI may handle more predictive tasks while preserving human deliberation at the courtroom level.
Why 1,200 Digital Jurors Are Better than Human Ones, with Robert Hirschhorn and Lisa Blue
