Class Description: During this class, the panel discusses how well-prepared witnesses and persuasive direct examinations (or lack thereof) can make or break your case at trial. They cover the vital task of preparing witnesses to testify credibly at trial. They also examine techniques and strategies for effective direct examination, maximizing the witness’s potential, minimizing their weaknesses, and how to start out right and finish strong at trial.
While this series is tailored for attorneys with some trial experience, those newer to trial work will also find valuable takeaways. Accordingly, you may also want to attend Jury Selection 2025 (On-Demand) and Cross-examination 2025 (On-Demand).
