Anatomy of A Trial: Voir Dire: Attorney Tim Sledd Explains Jury Selection

We talk about a criminal trial as if it was a single event but of course that’s not entirely true. A trial is made up of multiple parts starting with jury selection and going all the way to the delivery of a verdict. Not all of these stages of a trial always get attention but each of them can be tremendously important. In fact, some attorneys claim that a trial can be won or lost in the jury selection process– and that, of course, happens before any case is made to that jury. That is why we have decided to launch a new occasional series we are calling Anatomy of A Trial. In each segment, we will talk to an experienced trial lawyer who will go in depth with us about a particular piece of a trial.

Our expert today is Tim Sledd. We will be talking with Tim about voir dire, the process of jury selection. How are jurors picked? What kind of strategies do lawyers use when looking for jurors? How do attorneys try to build a rapport with jurors even before opening statements are delivered?

We wish I could automate all our New Year’s resolutions. Like if we didn’t have to muster the willpower to go on a walk for exercise, or if we could automatically kick ourselves off our phones and launch Margaret Millar books into our hands instead, that’d be awesome. Scary but super helpful.

But some things you can automate, like financial goals. That’s where the investing app Acorns comes in. If you’re like us, you’d like to save more money and improve your personal finance for the New Year.

At the end of the day, we run a small business, so we know firsthand how hard it can be to figure out money stuff. Plus, we’re not very financially minded. Áine is a history major. Kevin is an English major. We’re not savvy with finances. An app like Acorns is a gamechanger because it allows you to automate so much of this without having to actively think about it.
