If your jurors aren't as outraged about the details of your case as you think they should be, I have a question for you: Did you give them evidence, information, and facts? Or did you give them passion? Because if you spoke about the horrific details of your case without any inkling of emotion in your voice… why would you expect the jury to feel anything but "meh"? If you're going to effectively motivate your jurors to give you your verdict, you need them to be emotionally invested in your case. How do you do that? Tune in to today's episode of the FHTH podcast to learn how to get your jurors "appropriately rageful." Enjoy! -Sari Mentioned in the episode: For help learning how to use your voice to communicate your emotions to the jury, reach out to our resident vocal coach Kristi Foster at kristi@saridlm.com to book a free discovery session. Kristi LOVES working with y'all on this. Quote You talk about these horrific events without a hint of emotion in your voice, and then you come, and you complain to me and say, "They're [the jurors] not appropriately rageful." Well, that's your fucking fault. *** GET CLE CREDIT & LEARN FROM SARI… LIVE! *** DEAR VOIR DIRE VIRTUAL MASTERCLASS - ONLY $297!!

There are three little words that NEVER fail to strike fear into the hearts of plaintiff attorneys. And if you think I'm going to say, "We the jury…" or, "Objection, your honor!" you're wrong. The three scariest words I can say to y'all are: YOU ARE AMAZING! Seriously. Do you have any fucking idea how fucking amazing you are? (Yes, I said fuck twice in one sentence, but I say it way more in this episode, so consider yourself warned.) If you do not know how amazing you are, today's episode of the FHTH podcast is probably gonna be uncomfortable for you, which means you better go listen to it. Like now. I mean it! Love, Sari P.S. I love you. Quote Sari de la Motte - You do not have to earn amazing. You know why? Because you can't. Amazing isn't something you earn. It's something you are.

If you're not in trial very often—which is true for many of y'all—that doesn't mean you lack opportunities to practice your craft. Sure, the practice you get in court is important.
