Ep. 88: Negotiating Superior Case Development With Intention
Description
In the high-stakes world of litigation, success isn't left to chance—it's carefully crafted through intentional strategy, deep preparation, and a willingness to listen, learn, and adapt. Every strong case starts with a story that is just waiting to be told, one that is influenced by insight, intuition, and the capacity to relate to jurors on a human level in addition to facts and evidence.
In this powerful episode, Cindy Watson sits down with Elizabeth Larrick to explore the art and strategy behind Negotiating Superior Case Development With Intention.
Elizabeth Larrick is a seasoned trial lawyer with extensive courtroom experience, honed through solo practice and a fellowship with renowned trial attorney Don Keenan. She has mastered the use of focus groups, case themes, and trial strategy to enhance legal outcomes.
