This CLE course will guide litigators on how to use big data leading up to, and during, litigation. The panel will explore how data is being used to govern decisions as trial approaches, including settlement conditions, surveying potential jury member demographics, and use of psychographics for desired outcomes at trial.

Description

The legal profession is entering its data-driven phase. With the advent of litigation analytics, attorneys can finally quantify the prospects of success or the scope of risk for almost every option during a case.

Analytics has a role to play in every phase of litigation, from evaluating the plaintiff and opposing counsel, to the consideration of appellate issues. Understanding how to obtain and use this data is critical for litigators.

Previously, big data was only available to jury consultants or large law firms with deep pockets and enough resources to wade through immense and confusing amounts of information. But investigative programs that provide easy access to data are emerging as powerful everyday tools for lawyers seeking the bests outcomes for their clients.

Listen as our distinguished panel guides litigators on how to harness big data analytics for use during litigation. The panel will also discuss how data governs business decisions for corporations and law firms alike leading up to trial.
