  • Description: This guide offers a unique approach to advocacy instruction. It concentrates on the overall approach to trying a case, weaving persuasion and procedure to help lawyers and law students prepare for their first trials with confidence. It addresses a variety of topics from technology to where to sit and what to say and meshes practical advice and “how to” instructions with sophisticated persuasive techniques. Small enough to be read in a single sitting, this book will serve as the perfect first primer and a continuing resource for experienced litigators to read again before trial.
