By integrating legal graphics into your case presentation, you can more effectively argue your client’s case and potentially appeal to the learning preferences of your target audience. Take a closer look at the different types of graphics you can incorporate into your next trial or negotiation.
Courtroom Animations
A courtroom animation includes any still-frame or motion graphic designed to make complex information more digestible. These resources can also help improve recall.
According to an intriguing study published by the National Library of Medicine, the type of evidence jurors recall can “statistically predict” their verdicts. If jurors recall more exculpatory evidence, they may be more likely to render a verdict in favor of the defendant. Conversely, if they remember more incriminating evidence, they may be more likely to render a guilty verdict.
Patent Illustrations
If you are working to protect your client’s intellectual property — or fighting to exonerate them from an unjust accusation — patent illustrations can be a valuable tool. These complex visuals illustrate the protected features of a product or design and can be used to compare said patent to the item in question.
By leveraging these illustrations, you can convey subtle nuances to jurors and address important facts of the case.
Mechanism of Injury Animations
Legal professionals often use mechanism of injury animations in personal injury and wrongful death cases. These dynamic visual aids immerse audiences in the chain of events that led to the plaintiff’s injuries.
As the plaintiff’s attorney, you can use these animations to demonstrate how the defendant’s negligence or carelessness caused harm to your client. Alternatively, if you are representing the defense, mechanism of injury animations can draw attention to confounding and mitigating factors, such as the plaintiff’s own behavior.
Medical Device Graphics
If your case involves the performance — or failure — of a medical device, it’s important to present what happened in a digestible and memorable format. Medical device graphics can help your audience visualize what happened and how that chain of events may have impacted your client.
