The construction industry has long focused on resolving disputes outside the courtroom and without juries. But every year, numerous construction cases will be set for a jury trial, some of them high-stakes, big dollar disputes.

Jury consultants can provide early and ongoing insight with respect to risk assessment and trial strategy that will inform stakeholders’ decisions of when to try or settle a construction case.
