Business
“Start early. It's easier to get your mind around the numbers when you're smaller and when the numbers are easier. And then when you grow, you already have a foundation of understanding the numbers. Knowing the numbers is not contrary to running a business that has good values. It's actually an essential support to it.” -Sarah Murray Founded by Sarah Murray, Trialcraft endeavors to help their clients craft persuasive cases in the pretrial, in-trial, and up to post trial services.
