*Civil Plaintiff and Criminal Defense only

Join renowned trial consultant David Ball as he brings fellow consultant Artemis Malekpour, professor Jenn Pollitt, and a trial lawyer together for a powerful discussion on how empathy can be your strongest advocacy (and life) advantage. David refers to empathy as necessary for any strong plaintiff’s case, calling it as vital as “blood to the body.” 

In this 75-minute program, these experts will discuss the many benefits of understanding how to spot and elicit empathy in others:

• More accurate voir dire choices (identifying low- versus high-empathy jurors)
• Spot case elements that drive damages
• Bond jurors to you and your client
• Prepare witnesses better
• Engage in better direct examinations and much better crosses
• Predict more accurately what the defense will say and do—and what jurors will think and feel
• Gauge juror reactions during trial
• Know what to dwell on in closing

Join us for this riveting discussion of justice-driving empathy that includes one of its leading authorities. Temple University's Professor Jenn Pollitt's extensive research into empathy will guide our discussion of how and why the nature and uses of empathy profoundly enhance plaintiff's advocacy.
