Leighton Panoff Law’s John Elliott Leighton was a featured speaker on the “Weekend With The Stars” seminar in New York City on December 12, 2014.  This seminar, presented by the American Association for Justice, brings together an all-star faculty of trial lawyers from throughout the country to educate other lawyers on insights and experiences from hundreds of jury trials.

Mr. Leighton discussed state-of-the-art strategies for jury selection in trials, with a focus on how to approach jury selection with millennial jurors. Millennials (Generation Y) and their predecessors, Generation X, have become critical in contemporary jury selection because they now comprise the largest segment of adults in the United States.  Mr. Leighton has previously spoken on this prestigious program, and followed the presentation of legendary trial lawyer Gerry Spence and AAJ President Lisa Blue Baron.
