Civil Trial Support Sarasota
Budget: $750 – $1,500 USD
My civil case is set for jury trial in Sarasota County during the week of February 9, 2026, and I need an experienced trial assistant on-site in the courthouse and war-room from a few days before voir dire through the verdict.
The core of the assignment is hands-on logistical support: finalizing and tracking the witness schedule, making sure each witness is present and prepared, and keeping opposing counsel informed of any changes. You will also help me assemble, label, and update exhibit binders, maintain the electronic document database, and handle last-minute printing or scanning. During each session in court you will run trial presentation software, display exhibits cleanly for the jury, and annotate in real time when needed.
A solid grasp of Florida civil procedure, comfort with tools such as TrialDirector or OnCue, and the calm to troubleshoot courthouse tech hiccups are must-haves. If you have previously supported trial teams in Sarasota or neighboring circuits, please mention the case names and judges; local know-how is invaluable here.
Deliverables will be straightforward:
• Updated witness schedule with contact info and arrival confirmations
• A fully indexed set of trial exhibits, both hard copy and digital, ready for admission
• Daily backup of all trial presentation files
Confirmation of your availability on the specified dates is time-sensitive, so please respond today with a brief summary of similar trials you have supported and the software you prefer.
