Mastering Voir Dire is by far the most complete and effective jury selection guide available. ... It has simple, short examples from real trials tied to hard-core research and common sense. I have tried many cases, but what I used to know has changed in this digital world. Thanks for Mastering Voir Dire." --Morris Dees, Founder and Chief Trial Attorney, Southern Poverty Law Center "The much anticipated Fourth Edition of Mastering Voir Dire and Jury Selection confirms Dr. Jeffrey Frederick as America's foremost jury expert. With this thoroughly updated and lucidly written work, Frederick moves the needle in demonstrating how practicing lawyers can identify open-minded jurors and craft winning case narratives. A must-read book for the trial bar if ever there was one." --John Monahan, Shannon Distinguished Professor of Law and Psychology, University of Virginia School of Law, This is a valuable guide to help understand effective voir dire and jury selection strategies, and then to adapt these strategies to the unique circumstances faced in trial jurisdictions., The voir dire and jury selection process is one of the most challenging aspects of a jury trial.
