Voir Dire Mistakes
The forensic psychologists at Magnus Research Consultants
have assisted attorneys in selecting juries throughout the
United States. Although the attorneys with whom we work are
among the finest in the country, we regularly observe them
making mistakes in jury selection. Dr. Melissa Pigott, Magnus‚
Director of Research, recently published an article in The
Practical Litigator called "Twenty-Five Mistakes Attorneys
Make in Voir Dire." This article details these common
mistakes, then provides the reason why a given action or omission
constitutes a mistake. The purpose of the article was to educate
litigators of ways to avoid common pitfalls in voir dire as
well as to make the process more efficient and informative.
