The Hartford County Bar Association's Criminal Law Committee presents: The Art of Jury Selection

Attorney James A. Wade, of Robinson & Cole, uses his half-century of trial experience to show you how to navigate Connecticut's unique individual voir dire process. Attorney Wade will present on jury selection techniques, what rules he uses in voir dire, and when he breaks those rules. In the program, he will give a live demonstration of voir dire questioning by interviewing "jurors" on a mock case, showing how to tailor your questioning to your specific facts. Following this program, you'll know the tricks of the trade in trying to get to know potential jurors (and how they'll vote!) in the limited time you have in state court. This program is equally applicable to civil and criminal practitioners, and to both new and vastly experienced attorneys looking for a voir dire edge.
