Settlement & Negotiation Tools
Jury Research
The traditional jury research approach highlights data and case-specific questions. The Grand Slam Verdicts approach goes beyond the case by also looking at what the jury thinks of you, the lawyer. Our virtual jury focus groups to help you understand juror anger and learn how to explain your damages ask. Our full-day in-person mock trials help you to polish your presentation for public trial. Voir dire rehearsals assist you with identifying your nightmare jurors. And our Vulcan interactive software provides you with the best real-time, street-smart juror feedback and data in the world. We help you to drill down, in an issue-specific way, into what is concerning you about troublesome aspects of your cases. We help you to know, how much do jurors trust you, and why? We do this by getting feedback from the minds and hearts of jurors who represent a fair cross-section from your trial venue.

Negotiating settlements requires more than just facts—it demands creativity, precision, and the right tools to persuade adjusters and achieve the best outcomes for your clients. At Grand Slam Verdicts, we offer innovative strategies and proven methods to help attorneys break through negotiation barriers and secure faster, higher settlements.
Unlock Winning Strategies
Transforming Negotiations with Data and Strategy
Are you looking for effective ways to close deals faster? Our tools are designed to shift perspectives, drive actionable results, and maximize client compensation.
How We Help:
- Record a Defense Opening: Start with a strong Defense opening argument that resonates with adjusters, showing them you understand their case better than they do.
- Deliver a Powerful Plaintiff Opening: Follow with your own opening to translate pain and loss into a compelling financial argument. This combination unlocks the adjuster’s willingness to negotiate.
- Jury Feedback for Negotiation: Present your case to a 12-member jury focus group for objective feedback. This step provides key insights, including jurors’ reactions to the plaintiff’s credibility, which can be packaged into a persuasive negotiation toolkit.
By leveraging these strategies, you open the adjuster’s mind and strengthen your case for a higher settlement.
Settlement Testing Software
Our proprietary Settlement Testing™ software creates a safe space for both sides to explore settlement possibilities. Over 18 minutes, each party submits potential settlement numbers, and our software calculates the settlement gap without revealing individual figures.
Why It Works:
- Proven Success: Used in over 400 cases to accelerate resolution.
- Honest Conversations: Encourages transparency without pressure.
- Actionable Results: Helps both sides see the value of settlement without committing prematurely.
Settlement Testing saves time, money, and frustration, providing a clear path toward resolution.
Your Solution for Stalemates
For cases that feel impossible to resolve, we offer a powerful tool: The Courthouse Steps.
How It Works:
- Convene a 4-hour jury focus group.
- Present both sides’ openings to the jury.
- Divide jurors into two groups, each completing a verdict form.
- Observe deliberations to gain fresh insights into the case’s strengths and weaknesses.
This process provides both parties with an objective view of the case, often shifting mindsets and leading to settlement. In many cases, simply proposing jury feedback motivates the defense to settle without further action, saving time and resources.
The Bottom Line
“Grand Slam increased our settlement by 275%. A great investment!”
