The Caissa Group LLC

What The Caissa Group LLC does

The Caissa Group LLC is a privately-held, Washington, D.C.-based litigation consulting firm founded in 2021 by Dr. Leslie Ellis, a Ph.D.-credentialed social psychologist with 25+ years of experience studying jury, judicial, and arbitrator decision-making and a Past Presidency of the American Society of Trial Consultants. The firm sells expert research and consulting services to AmLaw 100/200 and Magic Circle law firms, Fortune 100 corporations, and Forbes 400 individuals facing complex civil, criminal, and arbitration matters, with disclosed engagement footprint across 38 U.S. states, Puerto Rico, and Europe.

The core service portfolio spans the full litigation lifecycle: exploratory jury research, confirmatory mock trials, large-scale quantitative surveys, strategic consulting, witness preparation, mock bench/arbitration hearings, real-time trial assistance, and voir dire/jury selection. A secondary Professional Development line delivers CLE programs, custom firm training, and gender/communication workshops. Delivery relies on qualitative and quantitative social-science methodologies (mock studies, post-trial interviews, field research on real juries, focus groups, surveys) executed by the principal and a small (1–10 employee) team, supplemented by a described network of trusted trial-preparation partners.

The business model is professional services, project-based, and quote-priced per engagement rather than subscription or productized. GTM is sales-led via direct outreach, referrals, and thought-leadership channels (ABA journals, Law360, national media, CLE speaking). Revenue is concentrated among a small number of enterprise clients tied to episodic high-stakes matters; there is no disclosed external funding, no technology platform, no API/product offering, and no AI/ML capabilities referenced in the source data.
