As part of the Institute for Energy Law (IEL) Webinar Series, an ongoing series of complimentary webinars produced by IEL of The Center for American and International Law, Persuasion Strategies’ Shelley C. Spiecker, Ph.D. recently presented “Oil and Gas Litigation: Persuading Millennials (and Other Cohorts) in Light of Fake News & Alt Facts.”
Experienced litigators are masters of persuasion. But an understanding of the social science behind the public's changing relationship to the facts can help us refine those persuasion techniques. This one-hour webinar examines the key factors of persuasive resistance today and outlines seven strategies for oil and gas attorneys and their clients to overcome persuasive resistance in an environment where this is becoming increasingly challenging.
MCLE Credit is available for this webinar. For more information please visit the program page online.
About Persuasion Strategies:
Persuasion Strategies is an integrated team of nationally recognized litigation consultants and legal graphics and video professionals dedicated to maximizing the effectiveness of your advocacy. Our history reflects our extensive experience, true innovation and proven results. In 1990, we became the first litigation consulting team serving in-house within a law firm to support trial attorneys and their clients. Our success quickly grew and we expanded our practice to attorneys and organizations outside of Holland & Hart LLP, while at the same time continuing to benefit from the extensive knowledge gained from our colleagues within the firm. After taking on the name Persuasion Strategies in 2001, we have grown to a team of 14, comprised of litigation consultants, graphics professionals and staff.
