Kudos

I have had the privilege to work with Ms. Laura McFerrin from time to time over the past eight years.  Ms. McFerrin is an outstanding professional and very committed to her work.  She has assisted me in a number of trials I have been involved in and she was professional, responsive, patient, and timely at accomplishing any task at hand.  Laura has always provided valuable insights and suggestions on how to visually present the important aspects of my cases and she handled any request at any time and worked weekends and late into the evenings, with a great attitude.  Ms. McFerrin’s knowledge of graphics, depositions and trial protocol have been invaluable during these trial and her suggestions have made my job that much easier.  Ms. McFerrin’s team shares her work ethics and it has been my pleasure to work with both her and her team.

Laura is a pro at the technical stuff in the courtroom. But she is more. She operates well under pressure. In one trial, the judge sternly stated that he wanted a tech issued resolved and resolved now. She steeped up to the plate and did it. And, she offers creative ideas on how to use the tech stuff to persuade and enlighten the jury and the judge, or the mediator and the opposing party. The bonus room with her and her team is this: they have worked on hundreds and hundreds of trials and hearings and mediations. I feel working with her always gives me an edge.

I had the pleasure of working with Laura McFerrin in preparation for and during three weeks of trial. She was extremely knowledgeable, perceptive and her experience showed by her anticipating the next requirement. Her creativity enabled my thoughts to be reduced to a visual presentation.

At all times she was professional, timely and more than willing and capable to work as long as it took.

I would recommend her to the 1st time trial or the 100th trial, more importantly, I would call upon her again.

I don’t go to trial without Benchmark Legal Media. Ms. McFerrin is the epitome of calm under pressure. She can handle any situation that comes up in the courtroom with complete ease. Her entire staff is extremely professional, efficient and our clients love them. I highly recommend Benchmark Legal for all of your trial needs

Benchmark/Laura McFerrin assisted our firm in a 3 month trial. Tireless worker, gave extra effort at every opportunity, had creative solution to graphics we wished to use at trial, and did so at all hours. Knows Trial Director inside out. Can cut n paste segments from trial exhibits, deposition testimony, etc., on the fly, during trial while the Judge and jury are waiting… handles the pressure well. There is no one better.”

Laura McFerrin and Benchmark Legal Media recently assisted me with a two-week, high-stakes trial in federal court in Montana. Laura did an outstanding job in all respects. Exhibits and deposition excerpts were always ready and promptly displayed, and Laura was a tireless worker in assisting my entire trial team with witness and

exhibit preparation. She is now my go-to choice for legal media assistance.

 

On  a lighter note, Laura was great fun to work with and made the trial grind easier to bear for all. She gets my highest recommendation.

Denver and the staff were incredibly helpful and got us everything we needed, even with a trial scheduled immediately after the Thanksgiving holiday.  Not only were we impressed, but the jury was as well.  After the verdict was read, more than one juror commented, “We loved your computer guy.  What he could do was so cool!”    It was wonderful being able to explain the overall goal of what was needed and then have Denver make the documents come alive for the jury.  For a case involving a lot of paper with a lot of fine print, highlighting key text for the jury was a vital part of the trial – and the victory.
