Civil Action with Brian & Shant
Government
Today Brian and Shant are joined by jury consultant Harry Plotkin. Harry has been a consultant for over 20 years and works with civil prosecutors in consumer cases. He has selected juries in 42 cases that resulted in eight-figure awards since 2013 and has consulted in over 1,000 cases nationwide in his career.
Brian, Shant and Harry talk about what to look for in prospective jurors, whether conservatives or liberals make for better jurors in civil cases and how important it is to get prospective jurors answering open ended questions to get a sense of how they feel about the law.
They also cover juries in the age of COVID and Zoom, how anger and mistrust during COVID has been good for prosecutors trying cases against big corporations and how difficult it is to pick a jury when everyone is wearing a mask...pros and cons.
You can reach out to Harry with any questions you may have at: harry@yournextjury.com or visit his website www.yournextjury.com.
If you have any questions about jury selection or have any other interesting cases or questions you would like to please reach out to us.
