The 7th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution preserves the right to a jury trial. That said, fewer civil cases go to trial, which means there are fewer experienced trial attorneys. Trials take a tremendous amount of time, effort, sweat, and tears. Bob Vaage and his staff have distilled almost 150 years of combined trial experience into a series of weekly trial tips on everything from jury selection to closing statements. This is a rare opportunity to see into Bob’s trial strategies with the goal of encouraging aspiring trial attorneys.
