Case Evaluation Clinics
If you need advice on experts or trial strategies, Minnesota Association for Justice can set up a panel of three experienced trial lawyers to review your case and offer advice. For Greater Minnesota members, conference call case evaluations allow you to participate from your own office. For Minnesota Association for Justice members only.
Mock Trials/Focus Groups
If you wonder how a jury will react to your case, Minnesota Association for Justice's Mock Trial Program can provide insight. Attorneys test arguments, theories and witness credibility before a panel of six or 12 citizen jurors.
