Digitizing Your Trial Materials

Experienced trial attorneys are all too familiar with the trial notebook. Exhibits, important notes, legal filings, and other documents are neatly organized for easy access during trial. However, as the legal field continues to evolve, many attorneys have enjoyed digitizing their materials for even faster access during court, where every minute is an opportunity to persuade the jury.

Scanning Documents

Most trials involve thousands of pages of documents that must be scanned and uploaded to law firm servers. At TrialSpectrum, Inc., we offer scanning services to our clients to help them manage large volumes of documents. We are able to upload these documents to a secure database so that you may access them easily and quickly. Our scanners provide high resolution images, allowing you to display documents on large screens in the courtroom. In addition, we are able to tag documents and make them searchable so that you are able to find what you need in just a couple of moments.

At TrialSpectrum, Inc., we do not outsource our services. We do all of our scanning, printing, and editing in house. This allows us to maintain a high-quality product and cut down on production time and expense for our clients.

Uploading Videos

Rather than fumble with a flash drive or external hard drive during a trial, you can access video files right from your computer in the courtroom. At TrialSpectrum, Inc., our video editors are able to prepare your video for court. We can add captions, zoom in, pan out, and improve quality and sound. When your video is finalized, we can upload it to a database for quick access during trial.

Creating a Seamless Presentation

Judges and jurors alike are impressed with attorneys who appear thoroughly prepared and organized during trial. Having a digital database of all of the exhibits needed for court will boost your credibility during trial. With all of your exhibits in one place, you will be able to provide a seamless presentation with few interruptions to the jury, keeping the jury engaged and interested in what you are saying. Rather than using multiple hard drives and computers and wasting precious time in the courtroom, you will be able to access everything you need from a single location.

Access for Multiple Attorneys

Teams of attorneys generally tackle trials together. However, when multiple attorneys bring their laptops, hard drives, and other materials to court, things can get mixed up and unorganized. Having a single database for your trial materials is an excellent way to have several attorneys handle a trial. At TrialSpectrum, Inc., our team can help your attorneys practice for trial and show them how to access the trial database. This will allow your trial team to easily handle their individual arguments and questioning in the courtroom.

Using Visual Aids in Personal Injury and Medical Malpractice Cases

For jurors who have little experience with reading medical records and applying legal concepts, personal injury and medical malpractice cases can be extremely confusing. At TrialSpectrum, Inc., we create visual aids for attorneys to use in their hearings, mediations, and trials to send strong, persuasive messages to judges and jurors.

Medical Illustrations and Animations

Medical Illustrations and animations are an excellent tool in personal injury and medical malpractice cases. The intricate processes in the human body can be difficult to understand if a witness is explaining them on the witness stand during a trial. An animation that shows how an injury occurs or how a disease develops in part of the body is a powerful way to support an argument for or against malpractice.

During a series of photos or slides from a PowerPoint presentation, jurors may draw their own conclusions about what happened in a case. However, with an animation, which provides a start-to-finish visual, jurors are less likely to draw their own conclusions about what happened.

Exhibit Boards

Exhibit boards are a classic tool for the courtroom. At TrialSpectrum, Inc., we can print exhibit boards in various sizes and finishes depending on your needs for your hearing or trial. In complex personal injury or medical malpractice cases, it can be helpful to have text from medical records or depositions blown up for the jury to read and remember, especially alongside photos and other visual aids.

One effective way to use an exhibit board is to compare and contrast the standard of care with the care the patient received. The standard of care can be broken down into individual bullet points, boxes, or other easy-to-read formats. Using checkboxes and other visual aids to mark whether the standard of care was met, the jury will be able to see where, if anywhere, a medical professional was negligent.

These tools are effective for both plaintiffs and defendants. At TrialSpectrum, Inc., we are able to create visual aids that support your arguments, no matter which side of the case you are on.

Detailed Photos

At TrialSpectrum, Inc., we are able to print high resolution photo boards for you to use in your case. In medical malpractice cases, detailed photos can be a valuable tool to show injuries or various conditions. Photos of injuries, x-ray scans, and other such photos can be printed to highlight different matters for the judge and jury. At TrialSpectrum, Inc., we complete all of our printing services in-house to ensure we provide our clients with excellent quality products. Additionally, keeping our printing services in-house keeps costs lowered.

Large Format Printing: Why Use It in the Courtroom?

If you are preparing for a legal proceeding in the courtroom, you know that the manner in which you present facts and legal arguments determines the outcome of the case. Visual aids have been proven time and time again to have a significant impact on jurors. Visual aids help a case come to life for the jury.

A Classic Visual Aid: Printed Displays

When you stand in front of a group of jurors, they likely expect to see some type of visual aid, whether it is a printed trial board or an animated video. Although trial technology has advanced significantly over the years, the printed display remains an effective visual aid for judges and jurors alike.

Printed posters, trial exhibits, and other large displays make a lasting impact because, as the attorney speaks, the display can remain in front of the jury. The jury is able to reference the display and connect it to the attorney’s arguments. In contrast to a PowerPoint presentation or a video, in which information may disappear after a few seconds, a printed display reinforces legal arguments for an extended period of time.

Why Hire a Litigation Consultation and Trial Technology Company for Large Format Printing?

It is easy to upload photos and documents online to have them printed at your local office supply store—so why hire a litigation consultation and trial technology company to print for you?

At TrialSpectrum, Inc., we carefully review the items you wish to have printed. We make sure that the display will be clear, high resolution, and easy to see in the courtroom. We are able to adjust contrast, brightness, sharpness, and other metrics to ensure that your display looks professional and neat. Simply clicking “upload and print” at a local office supply store does not provide this type of service and attention to detail—and with your client’s case on the line, you want to use the best services possible.

What Types of Exhibits Benefit from Large Format Printing?

Large format printing is beneficial in a variety of legal cases. In construction litigation, you can have blueprints and other architectural documents printed. In medical malpractice and other personal injury claims, large format printing is useful for showing the jury x-rays, photos, and medical films. Maps, photos, and various other types of exhibits can be printed, depending on the type of case and your goals for your clients.
