Identify a Judge’s Trial Persona Before you Walk into the Courtroom [Ep 172]
Judge rules can make or break your trial, and most lawyers are looking at the wrong document first. If you are headed to trial, this episode shows why the judge’s trial rules, schedule, and persona matter more than simply memorizing jury instructions. I talk about how a trial consultation exposed major surprises in a judge’s courtroom procedures, including half-day sessions, skipped Fridays, limited jury-selection time, and strict expectations that could completely reshape the order of proof, witness strategy, and expert costs. This episode previously aired on the podcast in 2024, and I'm bringing it back today because it's the perfect refresher ahead of an upcoming episode where I'll walk you through a recent trial consult of mine and the verdict. So keep that one in mind, and you can always refer back here for more context!
