In today’s litigation environment, most lawyers are not in trial enough to gain or maintain proficiency in necessary trial skills like cross examination, yet these skills are critical both at trial and during depositions. Renowned trial lawyer and trial skills instructor Roger Dodd and Super Lawyer “Rising Star” Tricia Kuendig will join PSBR partner Brian Panish for this program focused on using cross examination to elicit facts from opposing witnesses that build and support the plaintiff’s theory of the case. Brian and Roger will demonstrate how to harness the power of leading questions to control adverse and “runaway” witnesses. Hour 2: Oratorical devices including trilogies, loops, double loops (best applied to opposing experts), and the most prominent oratorical device, Spontaneous Loops separate trial lawyers on cross-examination.
