Audiovisuals Win Cases

Audiovisuals win cases because of the lasting impact on jurors and judges, including:

• Retention - When a juror processes information through audiovisuals, retention increases dramatically.
• Clarity of message - Audiovisuals assist jurors and judges to understand complex concepts and reduce lengthy courtroom explanations.
• Attention - Audiovisuals break up oral presentations and hold the attention of judges and jurors.
• Credibility - There is no better tool for impeachment than a witness' own image and voice played back in the courtroom.  Similarly, audiovisuals assist in establishing a witness' credibility to jurors.
• Impression - Audiovisuals provide context to testimony and allow individuals to communicate through voice inflection and nonverbal means to send the message you wish to deliver to the judge and jury.
• Ease of Use in the Courtroom - By digitizing and synchronizing video and transcripts together on CDs or DVDs, our in-house videography staff is able to provide you with immediate random access to volumes of transcripts.  This process also provides instant display of any portion of a video deposition with the associated transcript with a simple click of the mouse.
