ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Trial confidence cannot be manufactured at counsel table. In this solo episode, Miles Cooper examines what it means to have absolute faith in a case while remaining clear-eyed about every weakness that could lead to defeat.
Miles explains how preparation creates genuine conviction, offers three ways to address damaging facts and shows why curiosity about the defense’s strategy can reveal the counterargument. He also discusses using colleagues and AI as thought partners, Tim Ferriss’s fear-setting exercise and a trial lawyer’s “vision quest” away from daily noise.
Finally, Miles addresses what to do when belief still does not arrive, from bringing in co-counsel to changing the trial team, and why everyone who appears before the jury must share the same conviction.
