A question our attorneys get all the time from clients is "what's the difference between a bench trial and a jury trial? The obvious answer, according to our own Mike Keller, is that one is before a judge (the bench) and one is before a jury, but that's not all the differences. Check out Mike's blog post on the differences between the two here: https://lnkd.in/gkFZazzG
