Tell the WINNING STORY

Legal Storytelling
with DAVID MANN

Your facts are more persuasive if they're packaged as a story.

Want fact finders to find in your favor? Tell a good story.

Your client is depending on you to fight for them and walk away with a victory. You know your facts, but do you know how to organize them into a narrative? You’re standing up and speaking, but are you using your voice and body persuasively?

​

David can show you how.

​

He has worked with hundreds of lawyers for over a decade, taking them from nervous to confident to commanding - all while staying grounded in a persuasive narrative in plain language.

"Working with David on story development is an invaluable part of our case workup and gives us a tremendous edge over the other side. By the time trial depositions start we have such a good working story for the case that they are at a distinct disadvantage."
