You know what's killing your voir dire? You're already thinking about your next question before the juror has finished answering.
You're so focused on getting through your list that you're missing what's happening right in front of you.
Jury selection isn't about asking the most questions. It's about understanding the answers.
When you actually listen, you give yourself the opportunity to explore what jurors believe, how they think, and what matters to them.
That's where meaningful conversations begin.
So the next time you're preparing your voir dire questions, remember:
Your next question can wait. The juror in front of you can't.
