In today's information age individuals have become used to seeing well presented graphics and stimulating design when searching for information on the internet.

Therefore, when presented with the facts in a case of law many individuals simply turn off if the information is not presented in a way they are accustomed to, according to Law.com.

In order to combat this, consultants are now offering PowerPoint services to attorneys in the US to create bespoke presentations which help put across key evidence and the facts of a case in a manner which is both eye-catching and professional.

A complex case could cost up to $8,500 (£4,605) to set up, with this fee including preliminary meetings between the consultant and attorney to discuss the case and how the presentation should be centred, through to on-the-day technical support and the consultant's attendance at the trial.

In other news, it was recently reported that the software consultancy SAP has released a number of add-ons for PowerPoint which allow the user to input interactive charts and graphs into a presentation to make it more intuitive and informative.
