Keys to a Successful Trial - the Paralegal's Role

 
Keys to a successful trial include cooperation, organization and preparation. Cooperation is critical. The trial team is not just one or two people. Personalities may clash and you aren’t always going to get along with everyone you work with. When faced with a difficult person you need to keep in mind that you are representing the client and when you are in the courtroom you need to display a well working team. Organization is so important and paralegals are relied upon to keep the attorney’s organized. Preparation needs to start on day one. You can have a great case but if the trial team is not prepared you will have problems.

Our speaker, Marlo Orlin Leach, reviews when to start trial prep and determining what you need to win at trial. Identify evidence needed to strengthen the case at trial; and who can provide that evidence. She also discusses the need for a master calendar for all trial-related deadlines.

Marlo Orlin Leach is a managing member of Leach and Lowe LLC. She focuses her legal practice on tort, commercial, and environmental litigation. She defends premises and product liability actions involving property damage and personal injury, including claims based on toxic torts, indoor air quality, and the manufacture and use of tools, machinery, and chemicals.
