Tampa Bay RIMS April 2026 Meeting

“Making the Most of Mock Juries: A Risk Manager’s View”

PRESENTERS: Moderator - Katherine Henry, Partner and Chair of Policyholder Insurance Coverage Practice with Bradley Arant Boult Cummings, LLP. Panelist – Polly James, Senior Director of Risk Management for Feld Entertainment. Panelist – Robert Romeo, Head of Claims, North America for Berkshire Specialty Insurance. Panelist – Will Manuel, Partner with Bradley Arant Boult Cummings, LLP

SUMMARY: Mock juries are a practical tool to assess litigation risk in high-stakes matters. But they can also create questions—especially where insurers + defense counsel + the corporate defendant/risk manager all have legitimate interests.

The presentation will be a walkthrough of the who/what/when/why/how of mock juries for risk managers.

By the end, you’ll know:

• What a mock jury is and how it works
• Why and when to use a mock jury
• What the results mean (and what they don’t)
• How to apply the results to your risk management strategy

We look forward to seeing you!
