Cannabis Trial Consultant
W. Michael Walz believes the best defense is a good offense.
This entails three main considerations, each of which has to be carefully planned, coordinated, and elaborated.
Jury Selection
This is one ofthe most important parts of your trial, yet many lawyers acknowledge having little insight or specialized training in jury selection. Marijuana trials are different because legalization advocates are among the potential jurors. Cannabis Trial Consultants will help select a jury calculated to respond favorably to your case.
Legal Issue
Selecting the right legal issue for the jury to decide is critical for your chances of success. For instance, in the O.J. Simpson trial, his defense team steered the jury to consider the issue of "police trustworthiness." The defense did not allow the trial become about whether Simpson committed the crime. The strategy worked because it is based on the truth that many cops are liars.
Truth should dominate any cannabis trial, but not usually the truth the prosecutor wants to present.
Character Issue
My experience tells me good people are arrested for marijuana offenses. Allowing the jury to get to know you as a person can have a positive effect. Developing "good character" evidence is an objective worth pursuing.
