On Trial

Meer over het boek

A primer on the art of trial advocacy, this book provides advice, tips, rules, proverbs, and secrets for a successful trial practice. Strategies for trying a first trial, common jury selection mistakes and how to avoid them, secrets of living with judges, the commandments of settlement, and direct and cross examination pointers are provided, and quotes from famous lawyers throughout history are sprinkled throughout the book. Not a textbook or a collection of war stories, this concise and practical reference will become second nature to lawyers over the years as they perfect their practice.
