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.

How Hiring a Litigation Consultation and Trial Technology Company Saves Law Firms Time and Money

If you are an attorney and have an important hearing or trial coming up, you should consider hiring a litigation consultation and trial technology company. These companies assist law firms with numerous aspects of litigation, from printing exhibits to providing guidance on how to deliver legal arguments.

If you have never hired a litigation consultation and trial technology company in the past, you may be wondering how these services impact your case. With the assistance of a litigation consultation and trial technology company, you significantly improve your chances of success because you maintain greater control over the message the judge and jury will receive.

Why Hire TrialSpectrum, Inc.?

TrialSpectrum, Inc. is a full-service litigation consultation and trial technology company. Our services help save attorneys valuable time and money during their preparation for legal proceedings.

For example, we offer in-house printing services to our clients. Do you need a trial exhibit board? What about a large poster with certain areas zoomed in and emphasized? Do you need to laminate certain documents? At TrialSpectrum, Inc., we have our own printing facility where we handle these tasks for you. You do not have to worry about how your exhibit will look and whether it will be easy to read—we ensure that all of our printing meets top standards. You will not have to worry about searching for a reputable printing company and tracking down your exhibits—we handle all of this for you so that you may focus on preparing your arguments for the courtroom.

On the day of a hearing or trial, many attorneys prefer to meet with their clients before court begins to go over courtroom procedures and to alleviate any concerns their clients may have. However, many attorneys feel rushed as they try to pack up their computers and other equipment, meet with clients, and get set up in the courtroom before the judge takes the bench. When you hire TrialSpectrum, Inc., you will have additional time with your clients before court begins—because we set up all of the equipment you need. While you meet with your clients, we are plugging in monitors and computers, checking Wi-Fi connections, and testing software. We remain available during your legal proceeding just in case there is a technological error or if you simply need assistance.

Many attorneys develop “tunnel vision” in the weeks leading up to trial. It can be difficult to come up with outside perspectives on a case after working intimately with the evidence for month—or even years. At TrialSpectrum, Inc., our litigation consultation team is available to strategize with you and help create effective arguments that are clear and powerful to the jury. Rather than wasting time trying to brainstorm ideas on your own, we can create several routes you can take throughout the duration of your case.

When you hire TrialSpectrum, Inc., you only have to hire one company for all of your trial technology and litigation consultation needs. Many law firms have to hire several companies before trial, for example: a company for printing, a company for creating video animation, a company for equipment rentals, and a company for technology support. When you hire TrialSpectrum, Inc., we can manage all of these matters for you. Rather than coordinating with several different companies to prepare for trial, you only have to hire one.
