EDISCOVERY PLANNING AND CONSIDERATIONS CHECKLIST

TRIAL PRESENTATION CHECKLIST

How to present a winning argument at trial, hearing, or arbitration — from technology setup to post-trial reflection

Today’s judges, jurors, and arbitration panels expect clear, engaging visual presentations that bring evidence to life. The way you display your evidence can make or break your argument — no matter how thoroughly you’ve prepared your case.

Here are five reasons to use a structured trial presentation checklist:

1. You’ll choose the right technology before trial day, so you can pull up exhibits instantly and adapt to unexpected turns in testimony.
2. A strong visual strategy will help you show — not just tell — your story in a way that resonates with judges, jurors, and arbitrators.
3. You’ll have a clear plan for who manages the presentation, with communication signals and backup protocols ready to go.
4. You’ll make the most of deposition video, document callouts, timelines, and other high-impact visuals that static slides can’t match.
5. It’s your guide from courtroom setup through post-trial juror interviews — so nothing falls through the cracks when the stakes are highest.

This Nextpoint checklist covers every decision you need to make to deliver a compelling, professional presentation — from selecting your tools and scouting the venue to presenting with confidence and applying lessons to future matters. Download it today.
