Commonly Asked Questions:


Can't I just come out for the day? Why 5 days? That's a long time to be away from the office.
  • You're not just working up content when you work with Sari. Over the course of five days you'll be working on shifting your mindset, changing how you communicate and working with various juries. Changing how you've communicated for years takes time and practice. Most clients return over and over again. Sari does offer a 3-day intensive for those who cannot work 5 days into their schedule but highly recommends the 5-day intensive due to the strong connection between voir dire and opening. 

What if my case settles?
  • You come anyway. Your particular case is just a way to learn the nonverbal skills. What you're really learning when you come to work with Sari is how to craft and present any voir dire or opening. 
​
Do you offer refunds? Can I reschedule?
  • No. See above.

How much does it cost?
  • It depends on how many people are being coached, but in general a 5-day intensive is $50,000 and a 3-day intensive is $30,000.
