Essentially, the title says it all. How do some lawyers make such a difference in the outcome of a trial when defending clients accused of crimes? The evidence is the same regardless of the lawyer, so it doesn’t seem like they should have that much power over the verdict.

1 person looking through the evidence, reading up past cases, and reviewing written law is very tiring, and he might not be through.

the renowned lawyer typically is in a group or has his own firm, where they have a massive resource at their disposal. not to mention more experience in how to sway a case.
