 Noelle C. Nelson, Ph.D. is an internationally respected psychologist, author and seminar leader.

Business & Legal A business trial consultant for 20 years, Dr. Nelson works closely with attorneys, company management and corporate executives. Dr. Nelson has extensively studied how people think, make decisions and how they commit to those decisions. As a trial consultant, she helps attorneys enlist the cooperation of 12 perfect strangers (the jury) to get the results they want--all in the face of opposing counsel trying to convince the jury to come to the opposite decision. Since 2000, she has helped win more than $500 million for her plaintiff clients. Her defense clients have saved millions more.
