“Conducting Voir Dire is a first-rate primer that helps with the basics, from how to write your notes (though I hope you won’t write them yourself) during voir dire, to the most advanced steps of deciding peremptory and cause challenges. The book draws on a long, rich tradition dating back to the legendary Cathy Bennett, who was one of the great originators and guides of trial consulting. Conducting Voir Dire is truly from the wellspring. It has been energized and modernized by Lisa Blue and Bob Hirschorn, among the greatest teachers of how to make voir dire process–instead of a gamble.”
“This little book is chock-full of big ideas — practical ways to ramp up your jury selection skills to get your trial off to the right start. This masterly, but accessible, advice from tow of the best helps turn a difficult and awkward process into a thing of beauty. I read every word and learned a lot.”
“As the past CEO of Trammell Crow I met lawyers from all over the world. My go to trial lawyer in the past 10 years has been Lisa Blue. She always puts the client first. No matter what the legal issue is, Lisa Blue is always my first choice..”
“This ‘little blue book’ is a treasure. It’s a quick read, but you will want to have your highlighter and tabs ready! It’s full of practical tips that can benefit even the most experienced trial lawyer.”
“I have been listening to Lisa Blue and Robert Hirschorn give presentations on voir dire and jury selection for over twenty-five years. Although their first book, Preparing for Voir Dire was seemingly exhaustive on the subject, they have brought fresh and insightful thoughts about the new vistas of trial after the social media explosion. Their ideas on how to engage your judge in voir dire are incredibly helpful. This book I will pick up and study before my next trial.”
