Examination-in-chief is the heart of your case. Witnesses must tell their stories naturally and in their own words to earn credibility with the judge and jury. Yet, this is much easier said than done and can only occur through adequate preparation prior to trial.
Join us for the first installment of our Preparation Series focusing on Examinations-in-Chief and find out how to properly and thoroughly prepare yourself and your witnesses to deliver credible evidence at trial, with a special focus on remote preparation this year. You will receive tried and true tips for witness preparation, including how to make the decision to call a witness, best practices for preparing different categories of witnesses and strategies for organizing your examinations and questions in a natural and coherent sequence.
Attend and learn the techniques used by experienced counsel to prepare powerful examinations-in-chief - from initial interviews to final trial preparation.
