Eric Oliver The Universal Influence of Persuasive Communication

Eric Oliver explores the universal impact of persuasive communication, highlighting its pivotal role in shaping perceptions and decisions in everyday interactions and legal contexts alike.

Our ability to focus is now fleeting, fragile, and fragmented—characteristics that have been part of our collective attention span well before the advent of cell phones. This impairment in our attention makes it crucial to employ nonverbal and visual strategies to capture and maintain focus. For trial lawyers, this means crafting and presenting their cases more as engaging stories than mere collections of facts, ensuring these narratives resonate with the implicit biases and assumptions held by roughly half of today's jurors. This approach, along with sharing effective methods to combat attention deficits in the courtroom—or any setting—aims to improve focus and comprehension for everyone involved.

Eric Oliver boasts an extensive career spanning 40 years in national trial consulting, where he has been instrumental in coaching and assisting trial attorneys. His profound knowledge and expertise have played critical roles in numerous cases, leading to unprecedented successes and advantages for clients from prestigious law firms to innovative individual practices. Specializing in the influence of persuasive communication on the interpretation of case facts and their effect on legal judgments, Eric underscores the necessity for attorneys to invest considerable effort into presenting a well-crafted case narrative through verbal, visual, and non-verbal means.
