We recommend a jury trial because it's better to convince multiple people that you are not-guilty rather than one person. In a jury trial, all jurors have to be unanimous–if we can convince one person that you are not guilty, then you won't be convicted. In a bench trial, we only advocate to one person: the judge.
What's the difference between a Jury Trial and a Court Trial? In a jury trial, the decision of guilt or innocence is decided by either 6 or 12 citizens who listen to the evidence and make the decision. In a court trial, there is no jury present.
