"This serves as my highest endorsement on behalf of Paul Scoptur as a trial
consultant/focus group leader. I have known Paul now for a number of years,
and I have utilized Paul's services as a trial consultant/focus group
leader. Paul's skills are exceptional and are very helpful with regard to
conducting focus groups to determine the landmines in a case from the
venire's perspective and in restructuring the case to overcome jury bias
adverse to the opposition's position. I strongly endorse Paul as a trial
consultant/focus group leader."

"I recently had the opportunity to consult with Paul on a complex medical negligence case. Paul not only took the time to help me understand the case in terms of how a deviation from the standard of care occurred but he illustrated subtle nuances of the case, particularly relating to damages, that I wouldn’t have picked up on in a thousand years. It was the most valuable case consultation I have ever had and I wholeheartedly recommend Paul. I know I will certainly use him again."

I
am in my thirty-first year of trying cases, and will not try most cases
without first focus grouping them. I have had the pleasure of working
with Paul Scoptur as a facilitator in Milwaukee and firmly believe that
Paul serving as the facilitator was a definite asset. With Paul's help
I was able to shift from themes that I thought were important to themes
that the mock jurors believed were important. Paul's experience as a
trial lawyer enhanced his role as a facilitator, as he did not push for
a "win", but he rather framed and presented information to the jurors
so that we could get good feedback. It was also good to learn that an
issue that you thought would have been obvious to a blind man couldn't
be seen by anyone. It is also good to show your client the tapes of
the jurors deliberating so they can have a reality check. I look
forward to working with Paul in the future and have referred other
friends to him.
