About Me
In 1978 I started providing services to the legal community. Working intimately with trial teams I was involved with the strategy – and the art – of preparing cases for jury and bench trials and hearings. For the last 18 years I have been the senior trial consultant to an Am Law 100 firm in Dallas, Texas and am currently an independent litigation consultant in Dallas. I am honored to serve as the 2017-2018 president of the American Society of Trial Consultants.
Of course, in 40 years, you learn some things that don’t seem to directly apply to every case. After paralegal courses and then studying at the DFW School of Law, I supplemented my income as a wrangler and stage coach driver. In getting a four-in-hand draft of Belgians to go where they need to go, first you have to get the right team, then sometimes you need to the let lead horse have its head and sometimes you have to take the reins, but you always have to remember where you are going.
I now take the professional experience and associations established over nearly 4 decades to again offer my services to the community at large.
Firms large or small often find they need specialized resources outside their own group. Asking colleagues is one way to find those resources. Importantly though, you need to know what you need before you start looking, and know when you need to have it. Over the course of my career I have “learned a thing or two”. You need to prepare in advance, you need to know your story, and you need the right team to get you there.
R-D Consulting is uniquely suited to help you in early case assessment, story development and in finding the right resources to assist you in preparing to present your case.
