Manage episode 512827263 series 2090592
Have you ever heard a phrase in court and cringe a little?
Not because it’s wrong, but because it’s so… overused.
We’ve all said them.
BUT.
The game has changed. Jurors are sharper. Attention is shorter.
And credibility is everything.
So in this week’s podcast, I’m breaking down 7 phrases that are killing your case and offering better ways to build connection and trust.
Tune in NOW! 🎧
Love, Sari 💖

“The reason we say things like ‘you must be fair and impartial’ is because we’re trying to sound lawyerly. But that language doesn’t move people. What moves people is truth. When you speak from principle — when you say things like ‘we hold people accountable when they hurt others’ — you connect with jurors on a human level. That’s where your power is.”
