Many construction defect cases settle before reaching a courtroom, but those that go to trial present a unique challenge: explaining highly technical construction issues to jurors with no construction background. Success often depends not on who has the most complex expert analysis, but on who can tell the clearest, most credible story.
In this episode, host Chris Rhody welcomes veteran construction defect defense attorney David Salazar of Cole, Scott & Kissane to discuss how lawyers can translate complex building-related concepts into persuasive trial themes. They explore jury strategy, expert witness selection, cross-examination techniques, effective demonstratives and the practical lessons they've learned from trying high-stakes construction defect cases. Whether you're preparing for trial or looking to sharpen your litigation strategy, this conversation offers practical insights into presenting technical evidence in a way juries can understand and trust.
