Preparing for trial is quite an endeavor. We immerse ourselves in the facts of the case, constantly analyze them, dig deep to uncover other facts that will support our positions, decide how best to present the arguments, formulate questions, develop concepts, and determine what the jury needs to hear to be able to properly understand the claims.
