David Ball - Stop Dreading Jury Selection, Start Enjoying It

Is this you before voir dire: “You're nervous, you've got a million things on your mind, you've lost 14 motions you wanted to win, and now you've got to question these people to find out who's going to kill you.” That’s the scenario that many lawyers find themselves in, suggests influential trial consultant David Ball, whose groundbreaking books like "David Ball on Damages 3" revolutionized plaintiff advocacy. In this conversation with hosts Harry Plotkin and Dan Kramer, David shares his strategies for putting aside fear and instead embracing “the privilege that you should enjoy having.” Tune in for his insights about why lawyers should practice before jury selection, how connecting with jurors on a human level puts you “ahead of the game,” and what the all-purpose follow-up question – "tell me about that" – reveals about jurors.
