ABOUT US

On Trial Associates, Inc. is a Washington, DC-based trial consulting firm with almost 30 years of experience. On Trial Associates has been specializing in witness preparation, trial consulting, and training high-level professionals in presentation and communication skills through basic acting techniques with our Acting for Lawyers™ classes.

On Trial offers additional trial consulting services such as:

  • Focus groups and mock trial sessions
  • Personal presentation and oral advocacy skills
  • Assisting lawyers in developing courtroom strategies
  • Casting skilled actors for mock trials, training sessions, and to read in deposition transcripts at trial

On Trial cuts the cost of litigation by helping companies and law firms achieve favorable settlements and better results at trial. By optimizing testimony at deposition, identifying influential jury issues, and shaping the trial narrative, our clients have had cases dropped after deposition and verdicts rendered in cases with million dollar exposures.
