I believe the secret to success in the courtroom (and in life!) is cognitive empathy, or the ability to see other perspectives. I joined TTC because I love the focus on seeing things through the jurors' perspectives and then speaking to those perspectives. I know that trials can be stressful and challenging, and I'm delighted to have the opportunity to help you see trials a little differently, reduce your stress, and bring clarity to your message.
