Number Exhibits by Importance
Here's a good tip from Evan Schaeffer: if you are preparing for trial in a court that allows pre-marking of exhibits, then number your documents based on importance. In other words, mark the document that you want the jury to concentrate on most as number 1, and work your way down from there. Combine this technique with a pre-packaged exhibit notebook (or CD-Rom under the right circumstances) for the jury to try and keep their attention focused during deliberations.
