It could include but is not limited to prospective jurors demographic research, mock trials, jury selection, shadow jury or post trial jury interviews. Generally jury research is a part of a trial strategy in high stakes cases in civil or criminal litigation.

Jury research was successfully used during the History of IBM 1969 1979 The System 370 era IBM antitrust trial in 1969 and O. J. Simpson murder case . Today, there are many companies and individuals providing services as jury consultants or trial strategists. Research for jury trials comprises a small proportion of jury research.

Jury consultants and trial strategists represent just a few of the people who research jury trials.
