Dr. Leggett works with experts to improve their performance in front of juries. She elaborates on her role, “What that involves is my reaction to their likeability, credibility, and ability to be persuasive. I become the first juror sitting in a session with the expert. I always say, ‘I'm your first juror and I have a doctorate from Harvard. If I don't understand what you're talking about, you've got no chance with the jury.’”
