Seyfarth Trial Series - Breakfast Briefing: Roadmap for the In-House Lawyer Going to Trial

Guest Speaker: Terri L. Thomas, Senior Counsel at Navistar, Inc.

As an in-house lawyer managing litigation, rarely are the stakes as high as when your company is about to go to trial. Seyfarth’s National Trial Team has created a five-part series with strategies and best practices to help you, as in-house counsel, ensure that your company and internal clients are prepared for trial.

In this installment in the Seyfarth Trial Series, seasoned trial lawyers and experienced in-house counsel will provide a step-by-step guide to prepare in-house counsel for trial. Specifically, our presenters will address:

• Getting the attention of senior management so company personnel critical to the trial are given the requisite time to prepare and testify
   
• Identifying and managing trial risks, including making strategic and tactical decisions during trial
   
• Best practices to facilitate information flow to trial counsel
   
• Whether to conduct a mock jury or focus group
   
• Courtroom decorum
