IMS Insights Podcast

How do elite trial teams transform complex legal disputes into courtroom strategies that resonate with decision-makers? In this episode, IMS Senior Jury Consulting Advisor Chris Dominic is joined by Jason Barnes, IMS Senior Strategy Advisor (Emeritus), to discuss the tactical frameworks and techniques behind successful litigation strategy.

Drawing from more than three decades of experience, Jason shares insights into:

• Why early case strategy is critical, and why waiting until discovery can be costly
• How to simplify complex technical information through visual advocacy and demonstratives
• Real-world examples from high-stakes IP, antitrust, and white-collar cases
• Collaborating with expert witnesses to deliver testimony that resonates across audiences
• Using tactile tools like 3D-printed models to create a lasting impact in the courtroom

Whether you are a litigator, trial consultant, or in-house counsel, this conversation presents actionable strategies to sharpen case narratives and enhance trial outcomes.
