The PULSE platform empowers clients to understand the venue, the venire and the value of cases in a way no other form of social science research has been able to before. This presentation will share the results of an actual survey conducted in the Phoenix Metropolitan Area in the days leading up to this conference. This audience will be the first to hear these timely results and how the data from this PULSE survey and PULSE surveys like it can be applied to preparing and trying cases more effectively.

What does this mean for the future of the legal profession?
