Full Testimonials
"We have used the Tsongas team for several of our most important cases. The more we use them, the more impressed we become. They continue to impress us with their pragmatism and insights. They offer solutions, not just observations. They provide case-specific recommendations, not just boilerplate suggestions. They work with us and our clients to develop a cogent and meaningful approach to our most challenging issues. They have become part of our trial team not just a bolt-on accessory. I have not found a more talented group."
-- B. Trent Webb, SHOOK, HARDY & BACON, Kansas City, MO.
"I've relied on Tsongas for a variety of different matters across the country. Whether for strategy development, research, witness preparation or focusing themes and language for trial, they deliver practical information that always improves my chances of success."
-- Eric P. Schoonveld, HALL, PRANGLE & SCHOONVELD, Chicago, IL.
"I have worked with the Tsongas firm for over 20 years. Their work is top notch in every important phase of trial consultation, including witness preparation, theme planning, attorney trial performance coaching, and jury selection."
-- David B. Markowitz, MARKOWITZ, HERBOLD, GLADE & MEHLHAF, PC, Portland, OR.
"I have engaged Tsongas on several occasions to help me with a significant case heading for jury trial. Most recently we worked together on a major race discrimination class action that resulted in a verdict completely in favor of my client - recognized by The National Law Journal as one of the Top Ten Defense wins of the year. Tsongas helped us prepare and conduct a mock trial that was extremely helpful in testing and refining our case strategy. They also offered valuable assistance in developing our opening statement themes and closing argument, the demonstrative exhibits that we used throughout trial, and our jury selection strategy. I am a big believer in their approach to this type of jury research; and frankly, I would not approach a major jury trial without it. The people at Tsongas are great to work with - helpful, creative and responsive. I would recommend them highly, especially for high-profile or complex cases."
-- Michael Reiss, DAVIS WRIGHT TREMAINE, Seattle, WA.
"We resolved our Clark County Nevada case at a reasonable figure in large part because we consulted you and you provided us, through a mock trial and jury consultation, with information we used to analyze our case and structure our settlement. Our case was a seven figure, possibly eight figure, personal injury case.
You set up a four panel mock jury in Las Vegas. The jurors your staff selected from the local populace were just like jurors I see in Las Vegas courts. Your price for all this work was imminently reasonable. We settled our case at Mediation just over a month after the mock trial and my client was very satisfied with the settlement."
-- Norman F. Boxley, FLOYD, SKEREN & KELLY, LLP, Las Vegas, NV.
"I have worked with Tsongas Litigation Consulting since 1989. They have played crucial roles in my cases by conducting mock trials, preparing witnesses, designing demonstratives, performing jury research, preparing jury questionnaires, conducting post-trial juror interviews, and assisting with voir dire. I simply would not consider my trial preparation adequate or my team complete without the professionals at Tsongas by my side."
-- James Moriarty, MORIARTY LEYENDECKER, Boulder, CO.
"Our firm had the pleasure of working closely with Tsongas Consultants on a recent case that received national attention. Tsongas did not become involved in the case until about seven weeks before trial, after most of the discovery and pretrial motion practice had been completed. In only a couple conference calls, they grasped the facts, theories, and nuances of our case. Working quickly and efficiently with us, they designed and carried out just the jury research we needed, the results of which gave our whole team the confidence to stick to the game plan they helped us devise, no matter what our opponents threw at us. Their original, instinctive ideas for conveying our messages, which were confirmed through jury research, helped us arrive at the central themes of our case. They deftly used the research to chart out a jury selection strategy that was easy to implement and proved very successful. As the trial progressed, we constantly reminded ourselves of their specific advice and guidance. From opening statement through closing argument, we were lucky to have their specific input on every facet of our case presentation, including the design of key demonstratives. Tsongas consultants get my strongest possible recommendation as jury trial consultants."
-- Paul De Marco, WAITE, SCHNEIDER, BAYLESS AND CHESLEY, Cincinatti, OH.
"I have used Tsongas Litigation Consulting several times in complex litigation. I found the experience to be invaluable. On a case that went to trial, the firm's assistance in developing a jury questionnaire allowed us to accurately identify problem jurors, as well as jurors that would be receptive to our case. Pre-trial strategy sessions permitted us to identify case strengths and weaknesses, and a mock jury helped reveal juror's thought processes. The witness preparation was helpful in permitting first time witnesses to overcome their fears of testifying before a jury."
-- Cynthia L. Ducey, DELANEY, WILES, HAYES, GERETY, ELLIS & YOUNG, INC, Anchorage, Alaska.
"I've engaged Tsongas on jury trials, bench trials, and arbitrations to collectively develop a strong and persuasive case story that can guide discovery and deposition preparation. The Tsongas team has helped us prepare jury questionaires, organize pre-trial focus groups and pick a jury. I know when I retain Tsongas that I'm retaining the best around, and Tsongas works hard to meet our case schedule, as unreasonable as it may be. They are also very helpful in providing ideas for graphics and other court demonstrables. I do not hesitate to recommend Tsongas to other attorneys nor to recommend their retention to my clients."
-- Peter Ehrlichman, DORSEY & WHITNEY, Seattle, WA.
"I consider using Tsongas' services in every case I handle, not just in large exposure cases. Their case strategy process provides me with different types and levels of service customized for the case so I know I've always done my "jury due diligence." I have done many mock trials with many different Tsongas consultants. I have always come away with critical insights that were essential prior to trial or ADR. However, I believe that Tsongas is very attuned to the fact that not very case needs a full blown mock trial. They offer cost effective alternatives and my clients appreciate that."
-- David A. Ernst, BULLIVANT HOUSER BAILEY, Portland, OR.
"I have worked with Tsongas Litigation Consulting on a number of cases over the last decade. Tsongas has helped me with graphics, case themes, jury selection and mock trials. I have found their work to be uniformly first rate. They have very good ideas and provide top notch service"
-- Kelly Corr, CORR CRONIN MICHELSON BAUMGARDNER & PREECE, Seattle, WA.
"I have worked with Tsongas over the years and have always valued the insight and perspective they bring to my cases. I would not hesitate recommending them to other colleagues or directly to my clients. The new generation of Tsongas consultants has continued in the tradition of excellence began by their founder."
-- Fredric Tausend, K & L GATES, Seattle, WA.
"You have made the uncertainties of a civil jury trial manageable, workable and tolerable through your keen insight, common sense experience and judgment and consultation. Unpredictability has achieved a normative probability – something my clients bank on."
-- Michael A. Patterson, PATTERSON, BUCHANON, FOBES, LEITH, & KALZER, INC., Seattle, WA.
"Your research, consultation, experience and judgment were extremely helpful to the plaintiffs at each stage of trial preparation. We were very happy to have you on our side in the Exxon Valdez litigation. Your entire staff was great to work with. We think you are the best in the world at what you do."
-- Brian B. O'Neill and Lori Ann Wagner, FAEGRE & BENSON LLP, Minneapolis, MN.
"We have worked with the consultants at Tsongas for many years. They have done exceptional work for us in complex commercial litigation. Most importantly, they have helped us serve our client's needs better by aiding us with case strategy development, mock trial research, jury selection, graphics, witness preparation, and opening statement development for trial. I would recommend the Tsongas team of professionals highly, whether it is for a high exposure case where you could benefit from a wide range of their professional services or if it is a smaller matter and you just need some assistance in one or two areas.""
-- Jeffrey A. Beaver, GRAHAM & DUNN, Seattle, WA.
"Tsongas consultants were key members of the defense team throughout our recent class action jury trial and were instrumental in the successful outcome of the case. They provided several services, including a shadow jury. I am particularly impressed with their ability to analyze and distill information in real time and provide creative recommendations that cut to the heart of the matter. Their input can make a huge difference in a fast-moving jury trial. I wholeheartedly recommend Tsongas to all trial lawyers and their clients."
-- Kevin Baumgardner, CORR CRONIN MICHELSON BAUMBARDNER & PREECE, Seattle, WA.
