Panelists: Ray DeLorenzi, founder of RebuttalPR, and Tucker Willsie, founder of JuryMapping 

Description: Amid increasing societal and cultural shifts in our country, Americans’ views on the civil justice system are rapidly changing. In conjunction, how we consume news, form opinions about certain industries or groups, and make decisions is evolving as well. These developments ultimately lead to tremendous consequences for how attorneys represent clients, how juries respond to certain allegations and facts, and ultimately weigh heavily on the future of practicing law. 

Key 2024 Highlights: 

  • 38% of respondents definitely or probably would use an AI chatbot when trying to find a lawyer.  

  • Among several entities polled, respondents had the least positive view of social media companies, while medical doctors/physicians were seen as the most positive.  

  • Respondents were feeling significantly more hopeful and optimistic about the state of the country than in previous years. 

  • Respondents continued to value hardworking and down to earth/easy to talk to as the most important traits for a lawyer to have.  

  • 22% of respondents said that “too many lawsuits are harming American companies and the economy” is a very large problem, up from 16% in 2023. 

In 2022, RebuttalPR undertook this first-of-its-kind national opinion research to take the temperature of the environment in which we and our clients operate. We’ve continued since then — gaining even better understanding, in definitive terms, how the general public (or for attorneys, potential jurors) perceive the courts, how they seek out legal counsel, and what types of cases and fact patterns resonate most with them, particularly through the filter of mainstream media, social media, and their interpersonal networks.
