Product description
View a sample of this title using the ReadNow feature
Many lawyers – even seasoned trial lawyers – take a casual approach to jury selection: They show up for court with no prepared questions, and they do more talking than the prospective jurors do. As a result, they learn little about the prospective jurors and are forced to rely on stereotypes and “gut instinct” in making decisions about who should stay and who should go.
Simply put: This approach does not work.
Effective Voir Dire offers a better approach – one that is easily implemented and works in every case, civil and criminal:
- Step One: Analyze Your Case From a Layperson’s Perspective
- Step Two: Write Down and Test Out Your Questions in Advance
- Step Three: Stick to Your Script and Use Proven Techniques to Question Jurors in Court
- Step Four: Use All Available Information to Assess Jurors’ Responses
This four-step approach will help you (a) identify the jurors you need to worry about; (b) get jurors talking, so that they voluntarily reveal the biases that will hurt your client; (c) get more jurors excused for cause; and (d) make well-informed decisions about exercising your peremptory strikes.
800+ Voir Dire Questions at Your Fingertips
Once you know how the four-step approach works, Effective Voir Dire shows you how to use it, by providing sample voir dire for common fact scenarios in six distinct practice areas: motor vehicle accidents; slip, trip and fall; medical malpractice; products liability; employment; and criminal cases.
The voir dire samples are annotated with detailed analyses explaining why a line of questioning is important, what you can expect to learn, and how to assess and follow-up on jurors’ responses.
