IMS Senior Jury Consulting Advisor Jill Leibold, PhD, will join a CLE event hosted by Scott Douglass & McConnico, LLP in Austin, Texas, on August 20. Her presentation, titled The New Normal in Our Jury Pools: Conspiracism, Safetyism, and Radical Anti-Corporate/Anti-Government Sentiments, explores how evolving societal beliefs are influencing juror attitudes and what that means for legal strategy.
Dr. Leibold will discuss:
- The psychological impact of safetyism and polarized politics on jury pools
- The rise of mainstream conspiracism and its courtroom implications
- How these trends have led to extreme verdicts across diverse litigation types
- Practical strategies for mitigating bias and adapting trial strategy
This session highlights IMS’ commitment to helping legal teams navigate the evolving dynamics of juror decision-making and the growing risk of nuclear verdicts.
