Meet the founders

Nigel

Principal Trial Consultant

Two decades guiding plaintiff and defense teams through high-stakes litigation. Built Trial Metrics Group around a single idea: jury research should be rigorous, venue-specific, and embedded with the trial team — not a report that sits on a shelf.

Example engagements

Illustrative, anonymized examples of how we approach a case. Details are generalized to protect client confidentiality.

Product Liability —Plaintiff

Challenge
Approach: Three venue-specific mock jury panels tested liability themes and damages anchors, isolating the narrative that reframed responsibility.
Outcome: Trial-ready themes and a sharper jury-selection strategy supported a verdict that reflected the full scope of harm.

Catastrophic Injury — Defense

Challenge: Strong liability but uncertainty over how jurors in the venue would value non-economic damages.
Approach: Theme testing plus voir dire preparation identified favorable juror profiles and the damages story that resonated locally.
Outcome: The team entered mediation with data-backed positioning and resolved the matter well below the plaintiff's demand.
