Does Your Client's Image Say "Innocent", "Guilty", or "Reasonable Doubt"?
A Legal Image Consultant Can Help Influence The VerdictJudges and juries try to be fair and unbiased in their decisions, overlooking the physical appearance of those who appear before them in court. But consciously or unconsciously, we all make judgments about people based on how they look and act. And the courts are no exception.
That's why it's so important for your client, whether defendant, plaintiff, or witness, to present a positive image in court. A legal image consultant can literally make the difference between guilty and not guilty.
The Price of Poor Client Image in Court
Case 1: A female teacher is accused of having sex with her 14-year-old student. She appears in court wearing a low-cut blouse, highly inappropriate and self-incriminating, considering the charges.
Case 2: A famous singer shows up for his pre-trial hearing looking ungroomed, wearing a prison jumpsuit, and using body language that communicates contempt for the proceedings.
In both cases, the images projected by the accused pronounced them guilty long before their cases could be heard. Having an image consultant on your legal team could prevent costly courtroom gaffs like these.
Our Legal Image Consulting Services
Proper dressing, manners, and body language show that your clients respect the court; it can give them greater credibility in the eyes of the judge and jury. And that can help you win more cases.
Here's what our legal image consultants will do for you and your clients:
We conduct a Client Image Analysis® profile and, from that, develop an image strategy based on the individual client, case type, and presiding judge.
We provide a PowerPoint visual aid to help your client achieve the right look.
We coach your client on personal grooming, courtroom etiquette, and body language. We advise you, the case attorney, on the client's image needs so we are all working towards the same goal.
The short-term benefit of this process is an improved perception of your client in the eyes of the judge/jury/opposing legal team and a better chance at achieving a favorable verdict.
The long-term benefit of the regular use of a legal image consultant is that more clients will choose your firm because you have a reputation for going the extra mile to help them win.
