With skepticism toward corporations at an all-time high, defense teams face new hurdles in the courtroom. In this IMS Ignite Podcast episode, Senior Jury Consulting Advisor Chris Dominic is joined by Jury Consulting Advisor Keith Pounds, PhD, to explore how anti-corporate sentiment is reshaping modern jury trials and what litigators can do about it. 

Together, Chris and Keith dive into: 

  • Storytelling tactics that resonate with today’s juries 
  • The value of early visual advocacy to shape discovery 
  • Proactive witness preparation that avoids common plaintiff traps 
  • How corporate defendants are introduced in courts 
  • Why starting with a polished “corporate commercial” might backfire 

If you are a trial attorney or general counsel working with corporate defendants, listen now to learn how to shift the corporate narrative and courtroom dynamics in your next case.
