Winning "He Said, She Said" Cases: How to Craft a Compelling Narrative


Listen Later

One of the biggest misconceptions that keeps individuals from seeking legal help in employment cases is the belief that "he said, she said" cases can’t be won.

It’s a common assumption that without concrete evidence or witnesses, it's impossible to prove misconduct in the workplace. Tom debunks this fallacy and shares strategies for pursuing these types of employment cases.

Many people believe that "he said, she said" cases, particularly in cases of harassment, are impossible to win because of the lack of concrete evidence beyond the testimony of the victim. However, your testimony as the victim can be a powerful and compelling piece of evidence when presented correctly.

Drawing on his experience as a prosecutor, Tom vividly illustrates the power of testimony in shaping the narrative and persuading judges or juries. He demonstrates how slowing down the action and meticulously narrating the sequence of events can effectively sway the outcome in the victim's favor.

Tom emphasizes that the strength of the victim's testimony can serve as a potent force in establishing the credibility and validity of their claims, dispelling the notion that concrete evidence is the sole determinant of case success. He also shares additional strategies for building a compelling case when you have limited evidence.

With the right approach and the support of experienced legal representation, you can overcome the challenges surrounding "he said, she said" cases and get the justice you seek.
