PRIVATE COUNSEL
Maximize Your Odds of Winning Every Case, Every Time
Trial consultants help win cases. That’s why trial attorneys hire them (and clients pay for them) when the stakes are high.
But calling in the cavalry on only the “bet-the-firm” cases is a business practice litigation firms can ill afford. Huge cases make headlines, but it’s your win ratio on the "bread and butter" cases that truly boosts your bottom line.
To thrive, a litigation firm must make winning the focus of its business development strategy. That means pulling out the stops on every case, every time. But how do you "pull out the stops" when the case is small and its budget smaller still? We think we've found the answer.

Our PRIVATE COUNSEL service is an easy, cost-effective way to access "big budget" trial consulting services on a FLAT FEE basis. No running time clock; no pile of invoices; no worry your client will demand reductions in staff or billable hours. And no worry that you'll lose business to a less prestigious firm with cheaper rates.

Instead, for a lot less than you might think, you can have our experts work with your trial teams on a regularly scheduled basis to help you...
-
Hammer out case strategy
-
Craft case narratives and themes
-
Gain insight into your jury pool
-
Outline Openings and Closings
-
Design Conceptual Graphics
-
Prep fact and expert witnesses
-
Improve your Trial Team's presentation skills
-
Prepare for media encounters, and more.
Whether you want our help once a month, twice a week, or somewhere in between, we can boost your odds of winning whichever case (or cases) you deem priority for that day, week, month, or year. We'll bill you at a Flat Rate, payable monthly, that you can amortize any way you choose -- spreading it across as many departments, practices, or budgetary line items as you wish. And since our consultants are not your employees, there are no employee benefit packages to finance and that saves you a bundle.
So while no individual case, client, or internal cost center will bear the brunt of calling in our experts, your entire firm will reap the reward in higher win ratios, enhanced reputations, happier clients, more referrals, and a fatter bottom line.

TESTIMONIAL
"Karyn -
I wanted to send a belated thanks to you for your outstanding presentation at the IICLE [Illinois Institute of Continuing Legal Education] program in June. My expectations were high, but you absolutely shattered them. Feedback from attendees was outstanding.... You will help lawyers become better advocates and obtain better results for their clients...."
