SUMMARY:Working With Witnesses in Court
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a masters’ session on witness preparation. A tria
 l story is told through witnesses and your story is only as good as your w
 itness testimony. One of the hardest things attorneys do in preparing for 
 trial is to work with witnesses to control and shape the narrative. This s
 ession will explore the process of preparing three types of critical witne
 sses – fact witnesses\, expert witnesses\, and opposing witnesses. This 
 program will cover tips for how to structure the direct examination of fac
 t witnesses to communicate their story in a compelling and persuasive mann
 er\, how to turn your experts into effective teachers who will win the bat
 tle of the experts\, and how to handle opposing witnesses to get the infor
 mation you need to bolster your case and undercut the other side’s case.
  Learn techniques for organizing direct and cross examinations for maximum
  impact\, effectively using exhibits in examinations\, and reinforcing you
 r trial themes. We will explore how to prepare witnesses to answer the tou
 gh questions and how to frame difficult issues. Witnesses need to be in th
 e right frame of mind and we will discuss techniques for overcoming psycho
 logical barriers and empowering your witness to improve their credibility 
 on the stand.
