Personal Injury Evidence
The Purpose of Voir Dire
In voir dire, an California personal injury attorney must determine the real thoughts the jury has about the issues in your case. Where a prospective juror can hurt you, it is important to find out while you have an opportunity to remove them.
What is Admissible Evidence?
In a California personal injury case, not all evidence is admissible. Your attorney will go through the following analysis to determine admissibility.
First, is it relevant to the issues at trial? Does the proffered evidence have what is called "probative value?" (Tending to prove or disprove an essential fact in the case).
