About Us

Another trial consultant might show you what you — or your witness — may be doing “wrong” in your presentation, but we show you how to do it right. We’ll give you the vocal color, physical movements, and emotional storytelling techniques to be your most persuasive, natural self. Whether you’re a new member of the bar, or a veteran with million-dollar verdicts under your belt, CPI’s techniques will provide you with skills you’ve never had before. CPI has helped thousands of attorneys communicate more clearly, more engagingly, and more persuasively with the judge and jury. Our clients become better advocates after just one session or seminar.

Courtroom Performance, Inc. was formed by attorneys and professional communicators, to enhance the ability of trial attorneys to advocate for their clients. CPI provides products and courses to enable attorneys to effectively communicate the facts of their case in an engaging manner which enables the trier of fact to intellectually and emotionally understand the facts and argument being presented.

CPI's techniques achieve substantial results in a very short amount of time. Our instructors, Leonard Matheo and Lisa DeCaro, provide both a male and female perspective. Both perspectives compliment each other to help the attorney learn how to build relationships with each juror during voir dire, get more useful information in voir dire and cross-examination, deliver an impressive and commanding opening statement, and present a powerful and compelling closing argument.
