Court consultants vary in their concentration and areas of focus. Jury selection may be seen as the most important part of a court trial, while other legal professional believe working with their client or witnesses to identify, create and deliver a powerful display to aid testimony (and very possibly perspective shifting) is the most critical component of a successful outcome. Additionally, educating clients and witnesses about their unique micro behaviors and responses they often previously were not aware of is extremely powerful knowledge during a trial. Research based interpretive impact studies on such things as unconscious behaviors, human biases, speech patterns, non verbal language prejudices, posture, and even hair and clothes choices can arguably be much more powerful than “picking the right jury”. Some psychologists focus on effective trial strategies that include working with clients and witnesses as well as preparing exhibits, whereas other consultants prefer to use their skills to help pick the ideal jury right out of the gate. 

A clinical psychologist is highly trained to identify, predict, and alter behavioral patterns (think of treatment planning which ideally alters behavior). Consulting skills are derived from years of clinical experience, advanced and continual schooling and trainings, evidence based data and research, professional peer reviewed studies and outcomes, statistics, biology, and (hopefully) innate skills. Dr. Kaczmarek is often hired to consult with clients, witnesses, and Attorneys to help identify, create, and provide powerful testimonial aids and exhibits that relay a powerful impact; an impact that goes beyond the spoken word. Her goal is to provide stunning resources that WOW her clients and give clarity to her audience from a never before seen, and undeniably persuasive, perspective.
