With Gen Z now 14-29 years old, most of them are jury eligible. In 2026 and beyond, Gen Z will only make up a larger portion of our jury pool.
Gen Z is different. They are the first to grow up with widespread access to iPhones and social media. Their attitudes, impulses, and values can be—at times—shockingly different from prior generations.
Through the lens of Cadigan v. Liberty Helicopters, learn about how plaintiff’s trial lawyers can frame their case for Gen Z. Tried to a majority Gen Z jury in New York City, Cadigan resulted in a $116 million jury verdict—the highest wrongful death verdict in New York history—and settled post-verdict for $90 million in 2025.
Many trial lawyer tactics are timeless. But as juries evolve, so must trial lawyers. In this discussion, Brittany S. Robb and Andrew C. Robb of Robb & Robb LLC will share their insights and experience on perhaps the most substantial jury-viewpoint evolution of the 21st Century.
