Meldon Law Jury Research Focus Group
Thank you for your interest in participating in a Jury Research Focus Group. If you would like to take part and live in Florida, please complete the survey linked below. After submitting your survey, you may receive an email about your availability when upcoming focus groups are scheduled. If you have already participated in the past, please do not fill out the survey again. Additional details are provided below the survey links.
This survey contains roughly 100 questions (depending on your responses) and typically takes about 20 minutes to finish. You will be asked about your background as well as your thoughts on a variety of subjects. Your personal information will remain confidential and will never be shared or sold to any third party. The purpose of these surveys is to gain insight into how individuals from different walks of life think and form opinions, which helps us better understand how jurors may view issues if chosen for a trial.
If you have questions, please reach out to our Focus Group Coordinator at 352-373-8000.
Meldon Law is looking for individuals across the Alachua and Marion counties who would like to participate in a focus group and give us their opinions on a broad range of issues as well as on the specifics of our cases. Meldon Law hosts focus group events online and on-site at its office location in Gainesville, Florida.
