Marc Williams to Speak at AADC Annual Meeting in Ft. Smith, AK

Partner Marc Williams is speaking on Friday July 27 at the annual meeting for the Arkansas Association of Defense Counsel in Fort Smith, Arkansas. His segment topic is “A New Approach to Jury Communication.”

Highlights for the presentation include:

  • Storytelling is the most valuable skill set for a trial lawyer
  • Our brains are hard-wired to hear and process stories, so telling stories at trial is the most persuasive way to communicate your theme to the jury
  • The focus should be on providing the jury with a reason to care about your case as much as they care about the plaintiff
  • Try to have a story for each important part of your case, coupled with visuals to make the story more compelling
  • It’s not so much what you say, but what people hear that matters
