Pre-trial research can be conducted in either a focus group or mock trial format. An interactive focus group allows you to respond to questions from the mock jurors throughout the event and is particularly useful at the beginning stages of case development. Focus groups can be conducted in abbreviated, half-day sessions or in full day sessions. Multiple focus groups are optimal to examine the consistency of response across mock jury panels.

As the trial date approaches and you are ready to practice your presentation in a more formal, structured format, a mock trial will best suit your needs.
