Shari Belitz

I am a litigation strategist, owner, and CEO of Shari Belitz Communications, LLC a litigation consulting company that teaches lawyers how to use social psychology to achieve favorable litigation outcomes, whether at settlement or trial. I am an attorney with over twenty years of experience in the legal profession. Prior to my litigation consulting career, I was an insurance coverage attorney at a law firm and litigation manager in-house at AIG where I handled complex mass tort lawsuits for Fortune 500 insured clients. During my legal career, I took a leap of faith and pursued a dream I had always had which was studying forensic psychology, including advanced jury science and research at the graduate level. I speak at various legal and insurance industry conferences as well as universities and law schools about applying psychology to litigation, juror decision making, and nuclear verdicts. I am a co-author of the best-selling anthology #Networked, a Decameron inspired chapter book about online networking during a global pandemic, and the power of female networks.
