Katherine Mayer is a criminal justice expert and founder of Mayer Consulting, a holistic criminal defense consulting firm she established in 2012, specializing in fact investigation and mitigation. She earned her Master’s in Forensic Psychology, then served as a Mitigation Specialist with Miami-Dade’s Capital Litigation Unit on high-profile death penalty cases.
Over the past 15 years, Katherine became the first woman in Texas to achieve board certification in criminal defense investigation and is a Certified Legal Investigator (CLI) through the National Association of Legal Investigators (NALI). She is also the co-chair of the National Association of Sentencing Advocates and Mitigation Specialists, and frequently trains investigators, mitigation specialists, and attorneys throughout Texas and the US.
Katherine created Jury Intel after recognizing the need as a practitioner who experienced the challenges of jury research. This platform was not built in a tech incubator, but by an investigator who knows what information will provide legal teams with greater insight and confidence in jury selection.
Every engagement produces the same set of deliverables. Every data point passes a verification step, and every profile is reviewed and enriched by a professional human researcher before it reaches your hands.
Structured intelligence on each member of the panel. Life history, cultural background, employment, media consumption, and verified online activity are organized into a clear profile of each juror.
The attitudes and lived experiences most likely to influence how a juror processes case theory. Surfaced clearly so they inform questioning and challenges.
Specific concerns about specific jurors, ranked by significance, so nothing critical hides in a 200-page packet during a compressed selection window.
Capital defense, complex criminal matters, and civil litigation. Any case where the composition of the jury could shift the outcome.
