TSONGAS PRESIDENT ELECTED ASTC PRESIDENT
Tsongas Litigation Consulting, Inc. (Tsongas) is pleased to announce that Chris Dominic, Senior Consultant and President of Tsongas, has been elected to serve as President of the American Society of Trial Consultants (ASTC) beginning in June of 2007. First, he will serve as President-elect; his terms begin at the ASTC’s 25th Annual conference, June 8-12, 2006, in Austin, Texas. Before being elected president, Dominic served as a Director of ASTC’s Board.
Dominic has been with Tsongas since 1997, first as a consultant and later as both consultant and president of the firm. Frequently presenting seminars around the country on issues ranging from effective courtroom communication to litigation graphics, Dominic has become well known and respected by attorneys and other trial consultants alike. Dominic’s postgraduate education included studies and teaching in persuasion, public speaking, debate, and business/professional communication. He has a master’s degree in speech communication from San Diego State University.
With previous experience as a management consultant, Dominic possesses a business perspective that is unique from most former ASTC Presidents. Dominic has said, “The work I have done consulting with large organizations, as well as my current role at Tsongas, will directly translate into the approach I will take with the leadership role in ASTC. It is essential that we continue to move forward in the development of our relatively young profession.”
As ASTC celebrates its silver anniversary, Dominic says he has “great respect for what has been accomplished” in the last 25 years, and acknowledges that the organization “has a strong foundation to build upon.” Dominic hopes to build on this foundation by focusing on the continued development of the organization’s standards and guidelines and by doing more to “educate those outside the organization about what ASTC stands for and what we do.” He also says that the organization must “respond effectively to challenges to our profession and its development.” Challenges include the waves of tort reform measures being considered in many states.
Dominic is the third person from Tsongas to serve as ASTC President. Joyce Tsongas, the founder of Tsongas and one of the founding members of ASTC, served as the organization’s second president in 1984; Dennis Brooks served in 1996 and again in 1997. Tsongas is the only trial consulting firm to have a member serve as President of the organization in all three decades of the ASTC’s existence.
