     The members of The Advocates' Roundtable include psychologists, sociologists, attorneys, scientific researchers, and other professionals who are pre-eminent in the field of jury research and trial advocacy in the United States. Members of The Advocates' Roundtable often work side-by-side with regular members of our staff to augment the creativity for which our firm is known.

This service of The Advocates is especially helpful to trial attorneys and their clients who need reliable ideas immediately that can be used right away in the course of developing and presenting a case for the courtroom or for mediation.
