Chris Waters has spent 25 years in the courtroom. Trials & Tech gives attorneys the technology to win at trial — and gives individuals and businesses an affordable, trial-tested neutral to resolve disputes without one.
Trial presentation, video deposition designations, demonstratives, and full litigation support — from pre-trial prep to the moment the verdict is read. Plaintiff and defense, state and federal court.
Resolve your dispute privately, faster, and for a fraction of the cost of court — with a neutral who has actually tried cases, not just studied them. Built for small businesses, startups, families, and individuals, not just corporations. $250/hour. First 30 minutes free.
Trusted by attorneys, firms, and companies across Southern California
When the stakes reach the millions, trial teams across Southern California trust Trials & Tech.
Full pre-trial and in-trial support, staffed by people who have lived through thousands of trials and know what actually moves a jury.
Real-time exhibit display, document callouts, and synchronized testimony — every page branded, indexed, and tied to a clean court record, run by a technician who never breaks your rhythm in front of the jury.
Deposition designations and depo cuts turned around fast, with or without a synced transcript — plus trial-focused video editing: clip assembly, redactions, and cleanup of surveillance, body-cam, and incident footage. Built for the courtroom, not the cutting room.
Document production, print-copy-scan, and paralegal & attorney research that turns volumes of records into a usable, organized case file.
Authoritative visuals for expert testimony — medical procedures, product liability, and accident reconstruction that make the facts undeniable.
High-definition monitors, displays, and media players, delivered and operated by a technician — no scrambling for a working setup on day one.
Seamless remote hearings and depositions with crisp audio-video and a dedicated operator keeping the technology invisible.
Workflow and litigation technology tailored to your practice — built to expedite proceedings and cut the busywork out of trial prep.
A standalone alternative dispute resolution practice — mediation and binding or non-binding arbitration for small business, startup, family, contract, and residential construction disputes. Resolve conflicts without the cost and burden of litigation, guided by 25 years and real trial experience.
Our proprietary process stamps every exhibit and links it within a central database — seamless communication between counsel and presenter, and an accurate record every time.
When the case turns, we turn with it. Pull any exhibit, clip, or callout on the fly without breaking your rhythm in front of the jury.
The same people who prep your case run it at trial. No handoffs, no finger-pointing, no learning curve on the day it matters most.
