The rough and tumble of examinations - direct, cross, redirect - is the heart of this handbook, which offers up a wealth of practical techniques and advice for the novice litigator. For more experienced counsel, it can offer alternatives to practices developed over years. Maintaining a plainspoken style throughout, Examinations in Civil Trials presents a sophisticated and comprehensive approach to conducting examinations in court, and before administrative tribunals. Nearly every section wraps up with a case study - a fact situation drawn from the courtroom that sets up an exercise - and a "solution" clearly showing how an advocate might tackle the exercise with aplomb. | Examinations In Civil Trials by John Hollander, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
