Mock Juries
A mock trial shows you how a jury of peers is likely to evaluate your case. You can test arguments, evidence, and witnesses, while getting immediate feedback from mock jurors.
That feedback is only as reliable as the jury giving it. Your mock jury needs to match the demographics of the jury likely to be seated in your venue. Truscott uses several recruiting methods, including phone outreach, targeted digital recruiting, and community sourcing, to build panels that closely reflect your venue's jury pool.
Tell us your venue and trial date, and we'll build a panel to match.
Focus Groups
Mock trials are best for testing a whole case. Focus groups are better when you need answers to a narrower question, such as how people react to a single theme, a key piece of evidence, a damages figure, or an issue early in the case, before trial is on the calendar.
When matching a specific venue isn't essential, recruiting for a focus group can also be less expensive. We'll help you decide which approach fits your goals and budget, then recruit and screen participants to your criteria.
Surveys, Questionnaires, and Interviews
Need input from a larger or more targeted audience? Truscott designs and carries out quantitative and qualitative research for litigation, including community attitude and change-of-venue surveys, supplemental juror questionnaires, and one-on-one interviews. We'll help you choose the right method for your case, then use our nationwide reach to gather reliable data and analyze it for your team.
Shadow Juries
A shadow jury takes the insight of a mock trial into the courtroom. Shadow jurors watch your trial as it happens and report back to your team each day, giving you a real-time read on how the case is landing.
We carefully select shadow jurors to mirror the seated jury, then manage them for the length of the trial. Trials can shift quickly or run for weeks. Our team handles scheduling, attendance, and daily communication, and makes sure shadow jurors follow courtroom and confidentiality rules, so your team has a reliable source of feedback from opening statements to verdict.
