WELCOME TO THE JURY ROOM!

This is a blawg dedicated to understanding the American jury and trends in litigation strategy. You will find posts here exploring how research findings and current events inform:

• Juror decision-making

• Uncovering juror bias

• How values, attitudes and life experiences affect our choices and decisions

•What makes particular witnesses and evidence powerful or pointless … and much more.

Sometimes we’ll talk about current events. Sometimes we’ll talk about research. But it will always be research and experience applied to litigation advocacy. You know law. We know juries.

This blawg is our forum to share current lessons as we learn them. We invite your comments, questions and thoughts.
