Established in 2004, Denver-based eTrial Communications Inc. provides presentation-based trial support, with an emphasis on electronic, persuasive communication for leading law firms across the nation.

eTrial relies upon a stable of highly trained, strategic-minded professionals who give the company’s clients the most powerful tools in a courtroom setting. eTrial’s top consultants have provided support in such recent cases as those involving the tobacco industry, Rocky Flats in Colorado, and the fen-phen diet drug matter. eTrial prides itself on using some of the best designers, contractors and technology consultants in the industry, creating PowerPoint presentations, videos, three-dimensional demonstratives, etc. for use in the courtroom.

The company also offers the industry’s most efficient, cost-effective electronic brief software system called Brief Lynx^™. It is designed for attorneys who want to customize their court briefs with easy-to-follow, pinpoint links to evidence, case citations, graphics and other supporting materials, including multimedia tools. The patent-pending Brief Lynx^™ allows last-second changes to the document with a push of a button.

eTrial was founded by David Vanderport and his wife, Kristen, when they became aware of the increasing burden that high-tech advances have placed upon trial lawyers as those lawyers struggle to pull all pre-trial elements together and meet expectations for the most sophisticated presentations. eTrial’s goal is to provide the support that allows law firms to do what they do best, which is to build the best possible case on behalf of their clients.

The company offers its services to law firms of all sizes, representing all manner of issues and clients. eTrial’s consultants have worked on a wide-ranging portfolio of medical malpractice, patent infringement, product liability, antitrust, environmental cases and others. eTrial also supports trials involving employment issues, criminal fraud and breach of contract. The company’s skill set makes it appropriate to participate in preparation for trials of any nature.
