Richards & Connor

I have worked with April on numerous jury trials and consider her a vital part of the trial team.  Not only does she provide invaluable insight into the jury selection process, but she also provides her thoughts on the overall presentation of evidence and strategies to maximize our trial themes.  April works tirelessly at ensuring the evidence is prepared according to all Court mandates and can forecast the evidence needed without being prompted, which demonstrates her knowledge of trial tactics, the evidence, and how to maximize the chance of obtaining a successful verdict for my client.  Simply put: I would not try a case without her.

Grant A. Fitz, Esq.

McDaniel Acord, PLLC

My experience with April extends back to 2004, and she is, without a doubt, our go-to Trial Consultant.  As part of our trial team over the last 14 years, April has consistently performed at a high level, and she takes it as a personal and professional challenge to ensure that our clients receive the best technology and trial support possible.  Her education and experience has proven to be a valuable addition to our strategy development, and her joyful presence and work ethic make her a welcome addition to every war room and counsel table.  April is never part of the problem – she is always a key to the solution.

Frasier, Frasier & Hickman

I was introduced to April in 2007 by another lawyer and have been grateful ever since. She and the Opveon team are far more than trial consultants.  No task is too small or too great; you can rely on the Opveon team to complete any task thoroughly, efficiently and with exceptional detail.  I know that when I ask for Opveon’s help, the work gets done as if I were doing it myself.  April and her team continue to exceed expectations and deliver exceptional results.
