Product Description

Remember Gregory Peck as Atticus Finch in To Kill a Mockingbird? Katherine Hepburn in Adam’s Rib? Tom Cruise in A Few Good Men? What their characters all had in common was an uncanny ability to captivate the courtroom.

But in real life, many trials quickly devolve into endless paper blizzards and sidebar conferences—and jurors are often bored to tears by the first recess. What techniques do great trial lawyers use to grab and hold the jury’s attention and, ultimately, obtain the desired verdict? Attend this unique online seminar featuring legends of the Boston trial bar to find out. The program also offers a view from the bench featuring the chief judge of the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts, perspectives from a seasoned trial consultant, and expert commentary from one of MCLE’s most popular and engaging moderators, Richard Zielinski.
