Survey Research

   The use of surveys is becoming more and more important in high stakes or high profile litigation.  At TrialTech we us surveys to measure individual and community awareness and predispositions towards case specific issues and themes.  The results are Presented as a quantitative analysis of the demographic and attitudinal information obtained from the research.  Many times, the results can be used to indicate favorable or unfavorable jurors.

Change of Venue Studies

   In both civil and criminal cases, changing venue is a process used in the struggle to obtain a fair trial.  Juror prejudices due to pre-trial publicity or pre-existing community attitudes are often the primary grounds for seeking such a change.  In civil suits, we must also consider the economic variable that could also affect attitudes.

Community Attitude Surveys

   Community attitude surveys provide important and useful information about the attitudes of potential jurors on both general and specific aspects of the case, including the parties involved in the litigation.  Through the use of community attitude surveys, we learn how bias may affect jurors' reactions.
