A Practical Platform for Fairness Analysis

Fair Trial Analysis is built around a simple idea: when legal standards turn on effect, probability, prejudice, or impact, those questions should be evaluated with methods capable of measuring those things. The Solutions platform brings that idea into practice through litigation services, applied case work, and transparent research tools.

If You Want Fairness, Measure It.

Our work is designed for litigators, courts, researchers, and institutional partners who need rigorous empirical analysis in high-stakes matters. We provide case-focused research services, develop applied examples from real and published cases, and make transparent research tools available for broader use. In appropriate matters, Fair Trial Analysis can be retained to conduct empirical analysis, develop case-specific research designs, and produce objective assessments grounded in legal doctrine and scientific method.

Trial Errors & Omissions

Compare the probability of a specified outcome in the actual trial condition with the probability of that outcome in a hypothetical error-free trial. This solution is designed to support appellate arguments about whether a trial error was harmless or harmful.

Post-Conviction Analysis

Evaluate the likely effect of trial errors, omissions, or missing evidence in a hypothetical constitutionally adequate trial. This solution is particularly suited to prejudice analysis in post-conviction and habeas proceedings.

Custom Research Design

Some cases require more than a standard two-condition comparison. Fair Trial Analysis can develop custom research designs for matters involving multiple trial strategies, multiple omitted facts, layered procedural questions, or more complex verdict structures.

Amicus Curiae Briefs

Some cases require more than a standard two-condition comparison. Fair Trial Analysis can develop custom research designs for matters involving multiple trial strategies, multiple omitted facts, layered procedural questions, or more complex verdict structures.

Case Evaluation

Estimate the probability of a specified jury outcome under a single trial condition to help counsel assess trial risk before trial. This solution is designed to inform early decision-making with case-specific evidence rather than intuition alone.

Trial Strategies

Compare outcome probabilities across two trial conditions to evaluate how alternative case presentations, evidentiary choices, or strategic decisions may affect likely jury responses. This solution is especially useful when counsel wants to test competing approaches before trial.

Juror Selection

Identify relationships between juror characteristics and support for key case outcomes in order to better understand how different types of jurors respond to the case. This solution can inform voir dire and the strategic use of peremptory strikes.
