Mock Trials & Focus Groups
At SMT Litigation Consulting, we offer mock trial and focus group services designed to test your case narrative, identify potential juror perceptions, and refine your strategy before entering the courtroom.

Strategic Simulation & Insight
Mock trials and focus groups are powerful tools to evaluate how your case may be received by a jury. We design realistic simulations based on your case facts, guiding participants through opening statements, evidence, and argument presentation. The feedback gathered helps you identify weak points, test themes, and refine your approach with clarity and precision.

Data-Driven Preparation
We analyze juror responses, observe emotional and cognitive reactions, and extract insights into what messages resonate—or fall flat. This feedback allows us to fine-tune voir dire questions, adjust witness presentation, and structure a more persuasive case narrative.

Tailored Experience
Every mock trial or focus group we coordinate is customized to your specific case needs. Whether you're preparing a multi-party dispute or a high-damages claim, we scale the simulation accordingly to reflect real trial conditions and jury profiles.

Confidential & Professional Execution
We handle all simulations with the highest standards of confidentiality, ensuring that your strategy remains protected. Our goal is to support your team with actionable insights—delivered professionally and discreetly.
